Myrcianthes sp. - Sweet Black Myrcianthes

1 seed per pack. Please note: most of the seeds in this batch are beginning to sprout. A small and delicious fruit, with purple-black colored, berry-like fruits that have a sweet and lovely tropical flavor. Possibly a variant of Myrcianthes pungens, except the fruits are smooth skinned, ripen through orange and yellow, to black-purple and have a strong, unique flavor as compared to the Guabiyu. Found in Argentina. Likely shows some tolerance of cooler temperatures and should be good for growing in subtropical zones. Shrubby, bushy habit to several feet. #5427
