Eugenia calycina, Savannah Cherry is a delicious tropical cherry that is closely related to E. involucrata and is even disputed to be the same species! The two plants have slightly different characteristics, with E. calycina having larger fruit and a firmer flesh that carries more of the dark purple pigment. Savannah cherry is a reliable producer and would be a great addition to the sub-tropical and mediterranean garden for a long season of delicious cherry like fruits. Color : Green and Yellow
