Peanut Butter Fruit Plant -Bunchosia Argentea - Houseplant/Outdoors - 4" Pot

Bunchosia argentea, known as Peanut Butter Fruit or Ciruela Del Monte, is a species of flowering plant in the acerola family, Malpighiaceae, that is native to Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, and Brazil. Peanut Butter Fruit is a very attractive, evergreen small tree – it grows max 10-15 ft. Leaves are simple, opposite, ovate, up to 7" long and 3" wide with a wavy margin, forming a very ornamental canopy. Peanut Butter Fruit tastes just like the name implies: like rich, creamy, delicious peanut butter but with the added bonus of a true tropical fruity flavor with a surprisingly light consistency! When ripe, the fruit transforms from a vibrant light color to a cool deep red, like your favorite shade of lipstick! The fruits are teardrop shaped and just a tad larger than a quarter or as really big grape.
