Introducing the Argentinean guabiju fruit – a tasty and nutritious addition to any diet! This medium-sized tree grows up to 10 meters tall but it can be kept as a shrub and does not grow fast, with a relatively open canopy and hairy, branching stems. Its oval, oblong leaves are a bright green color on the outside and lighter on the underside, and measure 4-7 cm long. The trunk is semi-smooth and the bark is rough and light brown, with easily removable scales. The inner bark is white and emits a subtle aroma when cut. The small, white flowers of the guabiju tree are fragrant and appear from September to October at Argentina.

But the real star of the show is the fruit itself – small, round, and dark purple when ripe, with a sweet, edible flesh. Guabiju fruit is harvested from November to January, and can be eaten with or without the skin. In addition to its delicious taste, guabiju is also known for its medicinal properties – the leaves can be brewed into a tea with diuretic, digestive, and anti-diarrheal effects, and the bark can be used as a gargle for sore throats and other throat irritations.

Not just a tasty treat, the guabiju tree is also valued for its ornamental qualities – it is often planted in parks and gardens and can be trimmed into a decorative hedge. Its leaves can even be used to repel flies – when crushed, they release a resin that keeps these pests at bay.
