- Grumichama is a tropical fruit native to the southeast coastal area of Brazil. Today it is grown in many parts of the world including south Florida. Its small juicy fruit taste similar to northern cherries or plums.
Find out more about this lesser known tropical fruit by watching the video!
I live in South Africa. I have a HUGE Grumichama in my garden. It produces uncountable delicious fruits each year. There was one exception a few years ago. The windy season was late and the flowers were blown off thus preventing fruiting. Otherwise what a productive tree!
I am coming to S. Africa and buying a house next to yours so that I can pinch off a few of my favorite cherry every morning.
My tree in Vietnam (southeast asia) just starts have some ripe fruits after 3 years, and this type of tree attachs so much attention of our people.
I purchased my tree, and it flowered and gave me one fruit, still very hopeful 😊😊😊😊😊
The birds and me ate the rest😊
I am in Chicago Illinois and my plant just gave me fruit ! I keep the plant indoors!
That is awesome!
Omg you're so lucky
Love the informational videos
Going to give this plant a go in Auckland NZ, hope it's ok with clay soil and a warm humid climate.
Hello! We have five trees, here in.Brazil. We planted in 2016, and this month the first flower just show up! ! It was the tree of my childhood in the sixties!
Grows well here in Brisbane, Australia!
Funny I just harvested some grumichama this morning then I saw this video. I'm from socal I have two trees about 5 feet tall lots of fruit on it right now yummy...
Yay!
Hello from Southern California! My grumi is small but it just put on its first set of flowers! One fruit has held on so i think we will have our first fruit :)
Nick Rotellini interesting mine did the exact same thing 😣
Grows well here in Costa Rica!
Hola Douglas, podría hablarle para que me pase información del grumichama acá en CR?
Se lo agradeceré mucho! Pura vida! 👍
Byfield QLD Australia we get these 🌴
Thanks for the education Chris. You’re my RUclips fruit professor. This will work great as a fruit hedge windbreak. I have one buttttt you I can have “1” of anything!!
It's pretty!
I have a beautiful grumichama tree in my orchard in northern New South Wales. We have just had a beautiful harvest due to having had a lot of rain.
Tq for good info
Hello Truly Tropical! I started with a small tree from the University run nursery in Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. Planted it at home in Yabucoa, PR 18.0965° N, 65.9215° W at around 800 ft elevation, and within 7 years had hundreds of small trees popping up under the small trees from seeds fallen. The trees grew quite bushy and up to 20 ft tall. Beautiful trees and most delicious fruit. Goes from white flower to green, red and then dark purple fruit in about a month. Trees always heavy in fruit. Only reason fruit is not grown commercially is due to large size seeds compared to fruit from what I understand. Now I live back in Georgia USA and would love to try to grow in a green house, just need a seed and would need to keep it from freezing I guess.
I hope it does that well in Cabo rojo for me! Wish me luck! Lol
Florida, Tampa Bay area. Fruited on the second year after transplanting! Delicious berries, better than Rio grande & Barbados!
I live in southern California and I grow grumichama. I just planted it this year so I cant comment on the fruit yet, But it looks great and I have great hope.
Yay!
Grumichama can also be grown in the Bahamas as well.
There is one called cherry of the rio grande that people are growing well in Phoenix Arizona
They are native from the same region
I am so happy to finally hear the true name of mewees. I have many plants around my home in Dominica😃
Port saint Lucie Florida
Mines is loaded right now 8' tall in sandy soil.
I live on the Southeast shore of Lake Okeechobee. We have muck soil with layers of salt and pepper muck. Grumichama is a slow grower.
Lovely, now i want one too. We have them here in Trinidad but i was familiar with it. Great video again!
Thanks!
Do you have a tree?
@@simplesimone4779 no, unfortunately, I still don't have one.
Suggestions for companion planting? Pest repelling companions etc?
Growing well in Agnes Water Australia fruiting beautifully.
I live in Australia, Northern NSW, my tree grew very slowly for about 10 years then started to take off and fruit.
Profuce fruiting this year. The tree is about 30 years old now and about 5-6 meters high. Nice tree.
Thats kinda good to hear, my tree has been in the ground for 18 months and has barely grown at all lol
How large does the tree grow to?
It is still about 6 metres high.
My tree grow well and the flowers beautiful blooms: Malaysia
Mine is happily fruiting in Brisbane, Australia. Interestingly i't's planted in red clay shail
Great! So glad to hear of another place it does well in!
its grow in Philippines Yes thats true i saw that fruits
It is growing 8n a pot in my gardening Goa.
my tree is now establishing here in the Metro Phx (Tempe) area...gets a good amount of shade from a towering Jacaranda I planted as a 6 ft stick 18 yrs ago...going into yr 3 (at least) now...how it fruits this next yr !! :)
I have one in the Philippines. It cannot tolerate hot weather of lowlands. I planted it in area with 300 m altitude. When temp is around 20C it produces new leaves. But when temp is 3O C andabove . Leaves usually dried up.
Hi, i think there is some others reason rather than temperature, because i have a tree in vietnam that temp ranges from 10 degree C in winter and up to 40 degree C in summer and it grow very well. you should check the water if it's too dry, and maybe try another tree.
It grows in Mauritius also
In Malaysia and Singapore we have the rose myrtle or kemunting.
It grows here in Southern California but the tree isn't that bushy and no flowers/fruits yet. The tree is about 3 yrs old.
What do you fertilize grumichama with? Do you use citrus/avocado fertilizer?
When your Grumichama Tree is flowering I have found if you give your tree more water the fruit will set and you will get more fruit.
I'm in South Florida.. "extreme south" and have been very interested in growing a small hedgerow of them. Do you think replacing much of the soil in the area will allow it to thrive?
that would help
also, you could try chelated nutrients
Central Coast Queensland, Australia. Grows very well here.
Fruit ripens in mid November.
I just plant Grumichama in Cambodia for 6 months, they are growing well...
I Jus Bought Some Of This Beautiful Fruit 2Day 6th Oct 2021!…Growen In Cardwell NQLD Auzzie!
Yes i have fruiting tree. From Phil..
Hi Andrey, where in the Philippines is your place? I also want to plant in Bohol. Did you plant by seed or seedling?
It grows well in Costa Rica!
Does well in Southern California
What part of Southern California are you in? We are inland San Diego and it’s the slowest growing tree ever!
@@shawnplowman7924 Orange County coast line. True, it is naturally slow growing in general. I’ve only had mine for 4 months now, and it’s pushing out new growth finally. Looks nice and healthy. Do you feed you grumichama with organic natural fertilizers and minerals?
@@HealingGardensLandscaping2323 yes, fish emulsion and kelp emulsion
Which pesticide I can apply on grumichamma tree ???
we have it too.. in my place call it "jambu mawar" because its smell like rose and also its bit big then in that video .. 🇲🇾
Thanks for sharing!
Grumi gosta de sol....muito sol. Tenho uma grande na sombra.....da pouco. Uma no sol....com muitos frutos.Pena que da uma vez só.......por ano. Gosto mais de Jab.......jabuticaba......Da o ano todo. Abraços de Criciúma SC Brasil!!!
🍒🤗💕
I live in North Florida inFernandina Beach north of Jacksonville. Can I plant it in the ground here? It can get down to mid 20’s sometimes in the winter.
Grows well in mauritius
Port saint lucie mine grows awesome florida
Mine is about 4foot tall. When should I expect it to flower and fruit?
We have just moved to a property on the Sunshine Coast (South East coast) Australia.. The fruit trees on the property have been neglected for some time. But the Grumichama is massive! I'd have to say about 10 metres tall. Really quite impressive as it still heavily bares fruit but time for a trim we think🙏🍒❤️
I'm in corpus christi Texas and I'm going to try to grow grooms chama I have different one mangosteen Persimmon and cacao cacao
How grumichama can be introduced in Bangladesh?
it grows very well in our farm in China
It doesn't grow very well in Central Florida either. Takes FOREVER to grow. Must be the sandy soil, as I've given it plenty of fertilizer. I've gotten only 6 inches of growth in 2 years.
Grumichamas flower is very much alike with guavas, I wonder why an attempt to grow it here in the Philippines failed.
perhaps the wrong soil in the area where they planted it?
Kerala in india 🇮🇳.. it is growing
I'm looking forward to planting my 3ft tall Grumichama tree which is still in a pot. Could you suggest what type of soil I should use? I'm in California zone 10a and our soil is alkaline for the most part. Thanks
Garden Gainzz just be prepared to water water water, 😂
Thank you I will. Does the Grumi need more water than most typical fruit trees? I also see that they need soil to be on the acidic side. Thanks for the tip my man!
Garden Gainzz yes it does, you'll hear Chris make mention of how many gallons it's going to need and she's ever so right
dont plant it in compacted clay soil. It wont produce cherries in clay soil even if it survives root rot which tree usually develops when it rains in winter and soil is cold. Grow in 25 gal pot or work a lot of organic matter into your soil at least a year before planting. I grow it in SoCal in sandy loam with ph 6.8-6.5 which was clay soil before I worked a lot of organic matter into it over years.
@@greenblood3708 I purchased a baby grumichama about 3 years ago in Vista, CA. Its about 3 years old and will transplant it this year to a 22" wood crate planter instead of the horrid clay soil I have - so that was helpful tip, thanks. I'm also in SoCal.
Frutas deliciosa
Viet Nam too
In india it's grows very well
Srilanka can grow?
I'm going to try to air layer this.no fruit yet
grows and fruits in SoCal and AZ. It doesnt taste like regular cherry - not even close to the worst of them. I guess it is probably wishful tasting from the same people who say that acerola tastes like regular cherry. There is no tropical cherry that can even come close to Bing or Rainier cherry by the taste or meat volume.
Have you tried cherry of the Rio grande ? They are the closest
Is this Cherry of the Rio Grande?
Do you have seed it?
We didn't save any this year
I think it is subtropical plant not tropical. Brazil has so many different climate. outsiders think it's all tropical humid climate.
😂 thought it was a small mangosteen fir a sec but looks super good
keng yang small but tasty
Trinidad
Ini my country grumichama is gowhok taste sweet and sour
Cairns
My trees always die:(😭
Hawaii here. the fruit flies make this no fun to eat. the most ripe best tasting fruits are almost always full of larva... I want to try a large mosquito met this year.
put a FFly trap on the tree .
Vlad Impaler have you been to the jungle?
Every year a month at friends place in Puna. FF traps work in his jungle. You just need to make enough of them and make them right.
I'm in puna.yeah it probably would work it's just the thought that 1 in x is full of bugs. I want to try a net then Ill know they are bird and bug safe. I should put some fly traps in side though. in case they are lying in wait.
