Here are some of the new species I have acquired mainly through some very gracious friends!!! Eugenia klotzschiana, Eugenia neonitida, Eugenia stipitata, Myrciaria vexator and Plinia edulis and I also bought a Garcinia aristata from the RFVC of Broward as well. Here is my updated list & wish list http://ilikerareplants.blogspot.com/2008/12/tropical-fruit-inventory.html
More to come as these new species flower and fruit.
Here's a link to a picture of each fruit with a short description in Portuguese.Use a translator such as Bablefish (http://babelfish.yahoo.com/) if you would like to learn more about each plant)
