eugenia dombeyi
An attractive landscape ornamental shrub from Brazil
with red flushes and deep-green leaves, it prefers a moist, acid, rich
soil and can stand minor freezes (28¡F). It produces a cherry-sized purple-black
fruit which some say is equal to the best of the sweet cherries. Propagated
by seed with some success by cuttings under mist.
