Peanut Butter Plant(Grafted)

Description

About Peanut butter plant

Bunchosia glandulifera, commonly known as peanut butter fruit,[citation needed] is a species of flowering plant in the acerola family, Malpighiaceae, that is native to Central America and South America. It produces small orange-red fruits of sticky and dense pulp, with a flavour and aroma resembling that of peanut butter. It is mostly eaten fresh, but is also used for jellies, jams or preserves. The superficial appearance of the berries are similar to coffee and in Brazil is accordingly called caferana or falso guarana. The leaves are lightly sericeous (hairy) and have wavy edges. In cultivation the tree ideally reaches up to 6 metres (20 feet) in diameter, although can be maintained to a smaller size. The tree is fast-growing and has some frost-tolerance
