Those are not stamens. They are female flowers. Look at some of the previous pics on the forum.

Female

Have a bearing tree for about 14 years and in that time have removed the loquat and guava due to wormy fruit.  I have moved the Jabo to build a porch and recently  topped it without any bug problems.  Not a single worm, knock on wood.

Impossible to get a loquat or guava in the area due to fruit flys without poisons or labor intensive methods.

Jabo is a tasty choice without all that.

Same size for me too. It'll get larger if you have a small phone that resizes the initial pic.

Yes, that is a great idea. But it also may be a good experiment to dry a few seeds at the same time and rehydrate them after a month. I don’t really understand what makes them germinate. I tried 3 times to germinate a batch of five to ten seeds of these. Fresh seeds in a small container with bottom heat, like I germinate all Myrtaceae. But twice nothing came up and the last time it took them 2 to 4 months for three to germinate, of which two died.
It is an interesting Campomanesia because it grows in colder climates with some sort of winter, so I started wondering wether it needs a small cool period, or even to be dried and rehydrated to start germinating. If you could do a small experiment with three different batches of seeds - if you have enough seeds, that would be very helpful to figure this out.

Feijoa and Ugni - the other coldhardy Myrtaceae all tolerate to be dried and rehydrated. But they do sprout better when just freshly sown.

Enjoy the fruits!

I am tempted to sow your 10 sete capotes seeds now on vermiculite... if you want to, I can send you 5 dry seeds and 5 wet seeds...

And i forgot it's very hardy. My tree resisted totally to my worst winter temp of -6.5C!
