Uses: The fruits are much appreciated in their natural state, being also consumed in the form of juice, ice cream, jam, coulis, etc. The tree is very beautiful and can be successfully used in landscaping. It has been tested in pots and as bonsai. Cultivation: Suitable for subtropical and tropical climates with good availability of rainfall, on fertile and well-drained soils. As for luminosity, full sun is recommended in colder climates and partial shade in warmer climates. Rapidly developing. Origin: Originally described for Santa Catarina Island, it was later found in other municipalities in the homonymous state. Family: Myrtaceae. Observations: Despite having been described in 1975 by botanists JR Mattos and D. Legrand, it was only introduced into cultivation in the 2010s, through the great fruit collector Anestor Mezzomo, most responsible for its popularization.
