Customer Tips & Reviews Pitomba
MOUNT COTTON, QLD
Pitomba
A great addition to my eugenia collection. I've only had it in the ground for about 6 weeks - new growth everywhere. Is very happy in the SEQ climate. It's in a semi shaded spot with grass clippings around the outside and I give it some water everyday. I think this little tree is going to be a winner. Can't wait to try the the fruit.

Pitomba
Grew slowly till put into a self watering pot then looks changed totally from a slow stragly shrub to dark green leaves that shoot all the time and also produced flowers and first fruit which was delicious, tasted like a very aromatic dried apricot.
Pitomba
Pitomba has fruited for the first time after planting 3 years ago. Now about 1.6 metres tall - fruit is small but very sweet to eat straight from tree. Birds love them too so I will have to net next crop.

Slow growing with some initial dieback in winter. First reasonable crop after 8 years. Delicate aromatic flavour with hint of pineapple, soft fruit with single seed. Now producing fruit regularly.
