Plant Description

The Syzygium malaccense, commonly known as Malay Apple or Mountain Apple, is an impressive tropical tree admired for its glossy, dark green leaves and striking red, bell-shaped flowers that bloom profusely, creating a vibrant display. The oblong, waxy fruits that follow are deep red or pink, juicy, and mildly sweet, making them a delight for fresh eating. Growing to a height of 100-160 cm at this stage, this plant is perfect for tropical gardens and can also be grown in large containers. Native to Southeast Asia, it thrives in warm, humid environments.
