Christmas photos,

After long search in several different places, we ran many miles until we located a tree with fruits, because the other trees that I know did not fruits this year, I was able to find a Myrciaria Glomerata (red Cabeluda) with fruits, the fruits possess Sweet flavor, yellowish pulp, very interesting, the trees have on average 4 m in height.
The seeds I will use to make my seedlings and a good part I intend to reintroduce in nature, because the tree is rare and must be threatened with extinction.

from becoming extinct. Good luck!

Im curious What area did you find the trees growing and what was the climate like, How high would you say the elevation was? also what was the soil like? I ask because i have one growing about 6 inches tall and it randomly gets burning in the leaves but then it will grow fine and look great.

[Vernmented]

Yes please.
