My Ascerola
This plant thrived on Puerto Rico, so wanted to try my hand at it in West Central Florida. Known for its high vitamin C. She was 2’ ft tall and had 1 little purple flower. Well this is 4 months later. Can’t wait till next spring and hoping for some sweet fruit.
A little torn up but will make it
