Grafted Jamun “Indian Blackberry”(Java Plum)
Enjoy the taste of this delicious and nutritious Jamun fruit by growing in your outdoor spaces. The Jamun is an evergreen, fruit plant in the Myrtaceae family with oblong opposite leaves that are smooth, glossy and have a turpentine smell. Jamun has fragrant white flowers in branched clusters at stem tips and purplish-black oval edible berries.
A slow-growing species, it can reach heights of up to 30 m and can live more than 100 years. Its dense foliage provides shade and is grown just for its ornamental value. At the base of the tree, the bark is rough and dark grey, becoming lighter grey and smoother higher up. The wood is water-resistant. Because of this it is used in railway sleepers and to install motors in wells. It is sometimes used to make cheap furniture and village dwellings though it is relatively hard to work on.
Indian Blackberry trees start flowering from March to April. The flowers are fragrant and small, about 5 mm in diameter. The fruits develop by May or June and resemble large berries. The fruit is oblong, ovoid. Unripe fruit looks green. As it matures, its colour changes to pink, then to shining crimson red and finally to black colour. A variant of the tree produces white coloured fruit. The fruit has a combination of sweet, mildly sour and astringent flavour and tends to colour the tongue purple.
