Eugenia chlorophylla

Eugenia chlorophylla is a rare and visually stunning species native to southern Brazil, known for its ornamental appeal and delicious fruit. Growing as a medium-sized tree, it features a beautifully mottled trunk with tones of white, gray, and beige, and large, pitanga-like leaves. The fruits are a visual marvel, transitioning through a rainbow of colors—green, yellow, orange, red, purple, and finally black as they ripen. Inside, the pulp is sweet and richly flavored, with a yellow to orange hue. This Eugenia stands out as one of the most beautiful and delectable species of the Atlantic Forest, prized by collectors and native fruit enthusiasts alike.
