Anyone have any experience growing this fruit tree? I could really use some mentoring, cause I have planted one and am trying to get it established.....
Myrciaria floribunda, Eugenia floribunda (Rumberry Tree)
I don't have much experience. Planted one this Spring. So far it's pretty well established, has added some new growth. The real test will be how well it will do this winter.
Well, good news for me too! My tree is showing new growth (finally...)! I was afraid that it would not be able to deal with the excessive heat ( 104-108 temps), but it is hardening and budding and leaves are unfurling on it. This is the difficult time for plants in my area. I believe the winter here will be mild.
We're hoping for a mild winter too. Lost some stuff in last year's multiple freeze (very unusual for our area).
