Share
Plinia Coronata "Long Penduncle" Jaboticaba produces globose fruit that is dark purple when ripe with some greenish bronze blotches that are typical of Plinia coronatas. The 2-10mm apical crown often has minor reminants of the sepals which are easily brushed off. The fruit grows in bunches of 1-6 fruit on 8-22mm penduncles. The leaves are lanceolate, chartaceous, glabrous, and 4-6cm long. The pulp is succulent, sweet, and of excellent flavor. Precocity is unknown but Plinia Coronatas typically takes 8- 10 years to bear fruit from seed.
