We moved at the beginning of August and we were delighted to see we had two mature Jabuticaba trees at the new house, one in front and a huge one in back. On Aug 12th they burst into bud. Thousands of them!
Here is a collection of the buds just as they came out.
The buds came out way up to the top of the tree. The birds will love that!
They even came out right down to the ground. The dogs will love that!
Thousands of buds on the very tall tree.
Look at these clusters. Really amazing!
These are on the tree in the front yard.
They are all over the tree.
This shows the tree in the corner in the front yard. Handy for kids to jump the wall and steal the berries.
This is the view from the verandah. You can see the tree almost hangs over the wall.
We expect to have thousands of berries this year and we will make lots and lots of Geleia Jabuticaba!! Yummy!

I hope you don't get too angry when they start to fall and make a purple mess in your backyard...
