Hardy Corrientes Jaboticaba (Plinia aff. jaboticaba)
Explore the rare Corrientes Jaboticaba, a unique variety adapted to thrive in the frosty subtropical winters of Argentina’s Corrientes region. These trees offer a distinctive taste experience, with medium-sized fruits boasting a tangy sweetness reminiscent of strawberries and grapes.
Responsibly foraged from wild trees scattered across Corrientes forests, these seeds represent resilience in the face of habitat loss and offer an opportunity to preserve genetic diversity. Limited in availability due to remote sourcing and deforestation, securing these seeds supports conservation efforts through the “Huertas Urbanas” project, ensuring the survival of Argentina’s botanical heritage while celebrating its rich biodiversity.
Here for the first time in New Orleans, it is our hope that the hardy correientes will become adapted to our environment in much the same way it has in Corrientes, Argentina.
