Black Java Plum – 1 Live Fruit Tree | 6–10 Inch Syzygium cumini Starter Plant | Jamun Jambolan | Cây Trái Trâm

Grow a distinctive tropical fruit tree with this live Black Java Plum, botanically known as Syzygium cumini. Also called Jamun, Jambolan, Java Plum, and Cây Trái Trâm, this evergreen tree is valued for its attractive foliage, vigorous growth in warm climates, and dark purple to nearly black edible fruit.
Mature Java Plum trees can produce clusters of small fragrant flowers followed by oblong fruits that ripen from green through reddish-purple to deep purple-black. The ripe fruit has juicy flesh with a distinctive sweet-tart and mildly astringent flavor and is eaten fresh or used in beverages, preserves, and other preparations.
Syzygium cumini can eventually become a large tree when planted in the ground in a suitable tropical or subtropical climate. It prefers abundant sunlight, warmth, and well-draining soil. Young specimens can also be container-grown while establishing.
