Hi all
The month of June is specially good for Pitangas
Let me show you some pics of the different Pitangas I'm growing (and eating!) here:
For a start here is how the "Round fruit" Eugenia pitanga looks like:
And here they are again sharing the photo with some cousins (Pitangatuba + Calycina + Pear Shape Uvaias)
Again but now sharing the photo with other Pitangatubas and with his sisters "Black Ribbed" Eugenia pitanga... not so black today because I had to collect those before the birds do it.
And here are some fruits from one Eugenia uniflora with small leaves and almost round fruits... this is one of those from uplands at south Brazil that should resist lower temperatures... fruits are very sweet and tasty, with a very long peduncle... the fruits are usually bigger than that on the photo but that was the only one that bird left on the tree.
And to end here is the one that I was almost considering a myth... the orange pitanga... apparently it does exist and the fruits are huge!... and tasty too!...Unfortunately the tree is not mine... but those seeds are and they are planted on my GH already!
I have had good luck just cleft grafting. I use buddy tape to wrap the leafless scions and grafting rubbers to secure the union. I then wrap the union in buddy tape after I rubber band it.
Yep, same for me: http://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?topic=26735.msg319698#msg319698
