Grimal jaboticaba ID'd (originally labeled Spirito Sanctensis)
« on: November 16, 2014, 01:31:13 PM »
Got these seeds labeled as "Spirito Santensis" (correct spelling is Spirito Sanctensis is that what this is?





Thanks,

Those look like my spirito sanctensis leaves. Dark green with a small slightly rigid point at the tip.


Thanks Adam for the spelling correction:)

Looks pretty similar to mine, which has large plump fruit as we speak (type).

wait wait...

that one is not the real M spirito-sanctensis (this is the correct spelling btw)

this is the Grimal, which is known as "Peluda de Alagoas", and doesn't have a designated botanical name, so it's just Myrciaria sp. for now.

Ok, thanks Adam!  I will re-label so as to not perpetuate this botanical blunder!

In a year or so I'll seek your help on all the seedlings I've got started from the store bought Brazilian fruit... There have to be at least a couple different varieties in there.
