Noticed today that my Myrciaria glazioviana is flowering for the first time . Its in a half way filled 15gal pot, all shade, and about 2.5 ft tall. I got it from Adam 3-4 yrs ago. My Stringipes is also flowering. 1.5ft foot tall in a 7gal pot full shade. So excited. .
What do you think, can this be a flower?

I ate my first Crown 1 fruit. The taste was similar to a concord grape. It was not overly sweet. The size was good, bigger than the reds I had on hand but not as big as some of the whopper reds and grimals I have harvested. The skin was thicker than a red, similar to a grimal. The skin did not have any objectionable flavors and seemed edible. In the taste test of both of the pictured fruits, I liked the flavor of the red better.

Working on my jaboticaba collection. It’s hard when you are in college Giant mulchi, I have 3 of these in total, the other two are just coming up. I found a mealy bug on this one today already Novak jaboticaba. This one just came up and is showing a little new growth Sabara. About 4 years old. Red Jabo. 2 years old.Cabelluda. 2 years old. I had two but the other one got root rot. The leaf size on this one is looking nice. Just thought it would be fun to share.
