Latin name - Eugenia itaguahiensis

The Dwarf Grumichama (Eugenia itaguahiensis) is very similar to the common Grumichama (Eugenia itaguahiensis), except for two things:  It is much smaller and more compact, and the fruit is smaller, yet even tastier with a delightful and tangy raspberry-blueberry flavor.  Our largest Dwarf Grumichama tree is still only about waist height— they grow slowly and are ideal for small spaces and container growing.  The fruit is rounder than a regular Grumichama and a darker purple/violet color.   Eugenia itaguahiensis is a much less common species and a unique item for rare fruit collectors, especially those who prefer to grow in containers.  Fruits in about 1-2 years from a 3 gallon size.  Be sure to give your Dwarf Grumichama plenty of water, especially during the dry season— as with most Eugenia species, they prefer consistent soil moisture.
