I made wine, conserve, and dessert wine from my jabuticaba couple years in a row. Highly recommended. Missed out one year when the tree didn't fruit though!
I used to love to harvest jabuticaba whenever I could! It might be weird tasting the first time, but after you get used to it, it's addictive! Cheers from Brazil 💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻
They are delicious. The blooms are intoxicatingly addictive. And the fruit is scrumptious. Very hardy. Through drought and flood. They make a nice wine and tasty cordial. We have two at the top of our driveway. They are very beautiful. 🇦🇺 Thanks for sharing this. I’m about to find some seeds. They are fruiting now, after this long saturating summer here. We are subtropical but our winters get very cold here in the ranges Nth NSW. We have the occasional frosts. They grow beautifully. They love the full sun though.
I’d totally love to see an update on some of the old trees before you went dark on RUclips such as the ice cream bean and coconut palm etc and how that weird ice cream bean plant turned out
I’d love to make this, though sadly most of those plants are no longer as I had to leave them behind when I had moved to the city 😢. I do have a peach, pomegranate and date palm still but that’s about it. I’ve started more icecream bean plants 2 years ago now though, so I’m excited to be sharing more about them in the future :)
as an aussie who is lucky enough to have access to jaboticaba, the flavour isn’t really similar to grapes? it’s kind of herbal and bitter when you eat it with the skin, the flavour of the pulp is borderline alcoholic (not like a fermented flavour but that acidic sweet punch you get from a really light beer)
I enjoyed your video! We live in Florida but have planned a trip to New Zealand in January 2025. What part do you live in? I am trying to learn more about gardening. Our sons live in Hawaii on The Big Island and they love to plant native trees, basically living off of the land. I brought home some seeds from their trees such as Liliquio, Rolinia and Jabodacava and I am wondering how to prepare the seeds for the best germination.
I just LOVE jabuticaba 😍😍😍😍 I hope yours grow up nice and give you lots of fruits. It’s definitely one of the most spectacular tasty fruits. A cool fact about it is that, back in the past, this trees were so appreciated and beloved that it was commonly cited in the testaments. So, sometimes you could get a full grown jabuticaba tree as an inheritance, inside a property that was given to someone else. And according to the laws you had to be allowed access to the tree and had full rights over its harvest… hahahaha that happened also because this trees, when grown from seeds, usually takes more than 30 years to yield the first harvest (at least the old varieties). I hope yours start producing a lot sooner. You can always use the grafting technique to shorten this time… Im loving to follow your food forest saga… hehehe thanks for sharing the content.
Yes Jabuticaba are so cool ay! I can't wait for the day when I get fruit 👴. Lol, though the Grimal variety is supposed to fruit much sooner, so fingers crossed. That's really interesting about the laws and rights of harvest!
by the look of your film you have growing jaboticaba in 150 days and shows fruit on a tree how big does a tree get in 150 days in n.z it,s just that my wife and i like them and was wondering if it,s puting a tree in .(terry)
Afzal, your main challenge will be light requirements growing indoors. If you can do that and have well draining soil along with a regular fertilizer regimen, you should be able to do it. It's not fun unless it's a challenge!
@@afzalhussain2411 for ground that stays extremely wet you can plant above grade and keep the top of the root ball several inches higher than the ground level. This will definitely aid in helping the soil dry out. I do this with several of my plants since we have poor draining clay soil here in Texas. You can even cut the bottom of a pot and let the roots grow into the ground.
how much light can a lil seedling with the first 2 leaves take ? mine just sprouted currently under a 4 foot florescent shop light . wanted to move them outside , shade cloth or full sun its winter in California.
Good Morning Sir.. May i knoW the use of japocotiba grapes.. im curious about it.. where dpes it originated. and what benefits i can get when im starting to grow it in my backyard. can you pls tell me.. id like to know..xoz mypassion is growing plants
Hey bro, have you tasted them yet? I tasted them yesterday for the first time. Delicious. Grape-like. A woman has several large fruiting trees here in Auckland. They're amazing and I even got to pick a few directly off the tree. What an experience! If you share an email address I'll show you a video I took. Let me know.
Hey bro, that's awesome. Was that at Salt river gardens? I luckily got to try some last year when visiting a place in Kaitaia and got to try a few off a mature tree. Such a cool fruit and almost unreal looking tree ay! Feel free to share a video to the email in the video description. Would love to see :) Cheers
Hello Kalem! They look amazing! They’ve sprouted quite quickly! I’ve got some seedlings before winter and my plants are quite tiny! 🥲 What type of soil are you using? And fertilizer? Have you got them outside already? Also, ideas about trimming? Sorry for so many questions! You’ve got one of the best videos showing the starting process! So awesome!! Thank you!
I'm just in a process of planting some seeds and wondering where should I keep the pots untill they germinate? Do you keep them indoors? Watering everyday? I'm down in Nelson and hopefully will get some plants as they are just amazing❤️
At this time of year I would keep somewhere warm indoors. If doing in winter I often use a heat pad just to help things along. Just keep soil moist but not too wet and they should do well as long as they’re kept warm. You can also cover the pots with a bottle cut in half or something to keep the warmth in, but be careful that they don’t get cooked in the sun from to much heat.
It's a very slow growing and producing plant. Sometimes it takes more than 8 years to start to fruit. I have 28 plants in my farm here in Brazil. On my channel, there is a video where I talk about it.
Hi, I know a number of adult tree in Auckland and they are all multi-trunk trees like eg Pohutukawa. where do you get your seeds from? you seem to have a great source.
great, thx. am in auckland and also grow lots of subtropicals. maybe one day when the Jabticabas at my friends’ places are ripe I cld come visit you and share some samples?
great - I seem to remember that you hadn’t tried one when you shot your video. I also have Jaboticaba but after setting one flower two years ago it hasn’t since. But my fav I Am waiting for is my Montalban Lucuma. are you member of Franklin or Akl Tree Croppers?
Ellen Schindler thats cool! I’ve got some Lucuma seeds in so hopefully will have some seedlings soon :). No not a member at this stage but might do in the future
Thai MANGO dude, you should plant Lokmay MANGO variatey, Chokanan or Tongdam MANGO. Both are super Delis variety Thai MANGO. Then King of the fruits is Musang King Durian and Black Thorn Durian. Both are variety Durian you should Plant. Super Delis🤤
@@jamestropicals8262 - Since, they are a very slow growing plant, they live a long life. Sometimes more than 100 years. You'll enjoy them for a long time. You can make delicious jams from them too. Good luck.
Makes the best wine that you’ll ever have. I know cause I make the wine and everyone tells me it’s the best wine they’ve ever had. Now, if I can just find an investor..
I'm from Brazil and i'm totally passionate about this fruit. It's very good!
puxa saco de gringo
does it grow well in full sun? What kind of sunlight does it like
I made wine, conserve, and dessert wine from my jabuticaba couple years in a row. Highly recommended. Missed out one year when the tree didn't fruit though!
Cheers mate, growing a couple of these in Dunedin NZ. Cant wait till they start fruiting in ~10 years. A fruit for patience
I liked your video. I actually have 9 different varieties of Jaboticaba trees growing in Mesa, Arizona.
Awesome :) Didn't realize Jabos were polyembryonic.
I used to love to harvest jabuticaba whenever I could!
It might be weird tasting the first time, but after you get used to it, it's addictive!
Cheers from Brazil 💪🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I'm brazilian ! I love jabuticaba and I would love to have one plant of this 😍
Awesome. They are definitely very beautiful trees, though grow so slowly! You should have a go growing one :)

great info .. fantastic tree.. being such a big tree maybe train one in a big pot like a big bonsai?
Got 2 bigger trees. Just got a 100 seeds , so hopefully have a plantation one day.
These trees are awesome! Do you think they would survive the desert heat of Arizona?

Hi Kalem...I got given some seeds over a month ago....can i still plant them.....when is best to sow???
I bought a Sabara jaboticaba seedling online from Etsy a week ago and the seller also threw in a free red Surinam cherry plant!
Lucky!
Did you have them sitting inside after potting seed up?
I just LOVE jabuticaba 😍😍😍😍 I hope yours grow up nice and give you lots of fruits. It’s definitely one of the most spectacular tasty fruits.

Jaboticabas are delicious. I have 28 plants in my farm. They take a long time to start to have fruits.
From where I can buy the seed ??
Hey, could you make a video about how is your jabuticaba is grown over past few years, i see this video is at least 3 years old.
Happy growing 😊
Can you please mention the germination rate of jaboticaba red hybrid germination rate
Have you tried to grow the jamun also known as java plum.i have one indoors and not sure if it is cold hardy enough for UK climate
Afzal, your main challenge will be light requirements growing indoors. If you can do that and have well draining soil along with a regular fertilizer regimen, you should be able to do it. It's not fun unless it's a challenge!
ALBONGardens thanks my challenge is to grow it outdoors in the ground.the UK winters.which are temperate but extremely wet.

nice soil. do you have a soil recipe? btw jaboticabas are amazing, a true national hero haha 🇧🇷 i hope your trees gives you lots of fruits
great vid i hav 2 that survived, seems to still grow in winter a little bit like icecream bean
Please do an update on the ice cream beans🙏
how much light can a lil seedling with the first 2 leaves take ? mine just sprouted currently under a 4 foot florescent shop light . wanted to move them outside , shade cloth or full sun its winter in California.
where did you get these? how long till it starts to fruit?
Got mine from Marvellous fruits in NZ. This variety takes 5-6 years to fruit from seed. Other black jaboticaba varieties can take 10 or more years :)
@@TheKiwiGrower will they grow in wellington NZ?
@@joshuahaines1332 Im growing these outdoors in Dunedin. No reason why they would not grow in wgtn. Good to go.

Did you keep the soil moist while the seeds were sprouting? I have 50 seeds in peat moss now and am wondering how frequent I should water
How can you tell which one of the seedlings is from fertilization?
jaboticaba do 🇧🇷. Maravilhosa essa fruta.tenho varias
They make for great bonsai too! Please please train one for bonsai!!👉😎👉
Joe Quiggle I think I will now! Thanks 😊
@@TheKiwiGrower oh man! That would be great! Idk if you use Instagram, but I'm _Quigg on there. We ironically grow a few of the same plants
It's been 4 years now have you got an update on your Jaboticaba?
Can you tell me where I can buy these seeds?
If the roots are already stuck at the base of the port, why not give them a bigger pot when replanting? Just asking...
Do an update on those they look really cool!
Interesting! Cheers! 😎
Awesome video mate, where did you purchase the seeds.
They came from marvellous fruits here in NZ :)
@@TheKiwiGrower wow. I wonder if they deliver to Melbourne.
O by the way I'm loving your videos.
Wow these my dream to grow cant find seed anywhere to buy not sure if cant buy from a nursery
Join the NZ rare fruit growers facebook page. Sometime people sell seeds on there. They can be quite expensive

They are delicious!
Hey man, where did you get the seeds? i'll have to get some :)
they grow so slowwww! What are you using for fertilizer?
I have fresh seeds from all the jaboticaba I just ate. Should I dry them first or throw them in a ziploc bag with peat?
Nice one, They're best sown fresh, so no need to dry them first :)

Ellen Schindler thats cool! I’ve got some Lucuma seeds in so hopefully will have some seedlings soon :). No not a member at this stage but might do in the future
update soon??
Does it come true to the type from the seed?
It depends. Some individual seeds produce multiple trees and in this case it is a polyembryonic seed and some of those will be true to type.
Thai MANGO dude, you should plant Lokmay MANGO variatey, Chokanan or Tongdam MANGO. Both are super Delis variety Thai MANGO. Then King of the fruits is Musang King Durian and Black Thorn Durian. Both are variety Durian you should Plant. Super Delis🤤
P.S.: the jaboticaba jelly it's the best in the WORLD, it's sooooo goooooood
Really?!! Never heard of that. Is that common where you’re from?

Hopefully one day it will be! 🤞
How shall i get some seeds of jabuticaba ?
Your best bet would be finding some online or visiting a rare fruit growing page on Facebook, local to your country to see if someone has them :)
Hey kalem are you interested in trading one of your grimal jaboticaba for a 4 year old Sabara jaboticaba?

Is there any way of sending the seeds thorough parcel to india?
Hi, sorry I don’t have any seeds, these ones I bought and they’re very rare and hard to find here
Jaboticaba trees can take like 10 years to fruit and others take only 5 to 3 years
Yea I believe this variety is one that takes the shorter amount of time
Noice! 👍
I would have just let them grow as 2 or 3 just to see how it grows compared to 1 and 1.
