it would be excellent if the strange color stays...

they’re sweet low resin fruits so far...very pale.

Super cool, do you think they’ll all be smaller or is that just conditions or chance on those first fruits?

This is a white I got from vitor, it stays that color when fully ripe.

How does it taste?

Was it from seed from Vitor?  Is that what the parent plant's fruit was like?

Rex,

i think the fruits are so small because of drought and lack of water, they should attain normal size eventually.

Simon,

thanks very much!  I hope it keeps up, so i can graft one day!

ScottR,

yes first fruiting, it's a runt tree, and a seedling of a black pitanga, its sibling is like 5x the size and has been making black fruits for years....
