Jaboticaba Live Fruit Tree – 1 Plant, 2–3 Feet Tall, 3-Gallon Pot – *Myrciaria cauliflora*

Jaboticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora) is a tropical fruit tree native to Brazil, known for its distinctive growth habit and grape-like fruits. It develops a bushy form with multiple ornamental stems, making it an attractive addition to fruit gardens and suitable container collections.

This listing includes 1 live Jaboticaba tree measuring 2–3 feet tall at the time of shipping, supplied in a 3-gallon pot. Its fruits have thick skins and soft, melting pulp. They can be enjoyed fresh or used to prepare jams and wine. The fruit can also be frozen whole for later use.

Jaboticaba is especially distinctive because its fruit develops on older woody growth, including the trunk and branches. The seller recommends avoiding pruning to preserve fruiting wood. The seller also describes the tree as cold-hardy and water-loving, with a reported damage temperature of approximately 25–27°F.
