I know I posted about the pitangatuba ( somewhere )...have 4 fruiting , one is huge , over 3 meters tall and 3 wide . I also have one at my house ( close to the ocean ) that I took home from the nursery because of the extra large fruits it produced while still in a 20 liter paint bucket ( almost Carambola size ) , this bush has been pampered and flowers like hell , but no fruit ....could the ocean breaze have something to do with it

I really like to eat the pitangatuba fruit but allot of people don't like it. I have 10 plants and am reallystarting to have some fruit. I took two fruit today to my accountant along with yellow grumichama and zill's black suriname cherries. My accountant did not like the pitangatuba but really liked the others?I must have eaten 10 pitangatubas today. I have two children and one likes it one doesn't. More for me!
