Myrciaria cauliflora. The jabotlcaba of Brazil. 
A large tree of the jaboticaba, pronounced as if 
spelled jabuticaba, on the Catramby estate, near Rio de 
Janeiro. The tree is a slow grower but forms a beautiful 
shade tree and young specimens are now growing in southern 
California and southern Florida. It is not known yet how 
low temperatures it will withstand. It is one of the Myr- 
taceae, the order to which the guava and Peijoa belong.
