1 seed per pack. a.k.a. Eugenia neonitida. Very rare tropical fruit related to the surinam cherry. Bears yellow-orange fruits that are similar in basic appearance to the surinam cherry, but two times the size. Flavor is tasty, sour, with apricot overtones. Great for fresh eating and other uses. Small, bushy shrub to 1-2 m. Appears to be hardy to brief frosts. Seeds are fresh, cannot be stored and should be planted on receipt. #3524
