davewastech starts with ... Hi folks, I want to plant a jaboticaba (black fruit variety) in Sydney. I've read that they are really slow to crop, so of course the least slow option would be the way to go. What are the pros and cons of: Grafted vs seedling? Small vs big leaf variety? Any other considerations? Thanks, davewastech | About the Author davewastech WILLOUGHBY EAST,2068,NSW 5th October 2015 3:59pm #UserID: 7097 Posts: 115 View All davewastech's Edible Fruit Trees |
Daleys Fruit Tree Nursery says... Hi Dave, Grafted vs seedling? - there is not much difference, we have found that even grafted plants are slow Small vs big leaf variety? The large leaf is a larger more open tree with larger leaves and larger fruits that have thicker skin Any other considerations? The small leaf is a stunning ornamental tree with dense foliage to the ground, a rounded canopy and attractive coppery new growth, it is my personal pick. Be patient with your tree, they are well worth the time you spend waiting for the to fruit. | About the Author Daleys Fruit Tree Nursery 36 Daleys Lane, Geneva via Kyogle, NSW 2474 21st October 2015 11:18am #UserID: 5172 Posts: 80 View All Daleys Fruit Tree Nursery's Edible Fruit Trees |

The big leafed or grimal was always assumed to be M.spirito santensis but Brazilian experts have verified the Australian version is actually and undescribed species.The common or sabara jaboticaba is one of 4 varieties of M.jaboticaba commonly grown in Brazil.M.cauliflora is quite similar with Paulista the favoured variety of that species. | About the Author MIke T1 cairns 30th October 2015 8:24pm #UserID: 10744 Posts: 250 View All MIke T1's Edible Fruit Trees |
