Quando comprei o terreno para construir minha casa em 1970, minha esposa fez questão de plantar esta
Jabuticabeira.
E todos os anos é uma festa quando ela nos dá seus frutos.

Oh my goodness, it's very prolific. How do you eat those? How do they taste?
Very interesting post and the photos are gorgeous.
Pupo: I never saw anything like this tree. The fruit seems to come out of the branches. I need to look it up on the internet.
Thanks for the tour, great pics.
Cheers!

My World Tuesday #2
It must be tasting nice too. So nice of you to have shown this in different stages and colors.
Please visit my country too.
Uma jabuticabeira majestosa e repleta de frutos, gostei das fases. Parabéns.
Abraços
What an amazing tree! First I thought you had photoshopped the berries! Funny, isn't it?
The fruits look like black currants, but currants grow in little panicles and not along the trunk! - Wikipedia will help!
Thank you for sharing this interesting tree! Your 40 year old tree in your garden is something special!
That is one weird tree, I had to check Wikipedia on it. Thanks for posting about it :)
Ha, I found it:
Jabuticaba is called "Baumstammkirsche" in German (cherries on a trunk), the fruits are as big as cherries and taste like a mixture of cherries (Kirschen)and red currants (Johannisbeeren).
Unfortunately export of the ripe fruit is difficult (or impossible) as it decays too soon after picking.
I am enchanted with your to our eyes almost fairy tale tree with fruits on the trunk and branches.
Thank you Maria for your resarch so that we non Brazilians now know what the fruit tastes like.
What a wonderful asset to have in your garden. I am sure you can bottle the juice and also make jelly.
Thank you for this wonderful post.
oh what an interesting tree ...the fruit growing on the trunk like that.
dumb question...what do these lovely fruits taste like?
and are these trees native only to your part of the world?
thank you for sharing about this...i found it interesting.
have a wonderful week.
