Obviously related to the citrus family the foliage is glossy and aromatic. Perfect for use in a mixed screen or bush food garden the orange berry is also a host plant for the swallow tailed butterfly when the plant is young. Fruits make a delicious jam that taste similar to candied honey.

The fruit tastes even better in cooler climates. But don't try to grow them below 31F degrees. Fruits nearly all the time over 50F degrees.
