Syzygium jambos
Rose apples are also known as “Jambu” or “wax apple”. In no sense do these trees resemble standard apples as it is part of the myrtle family. Once these fruit trees are established they will produce fruit for 30 – 35 years.
The fruit is very crispy and tasty, similar to that of a normal apple, with the flesh being softer providing an excellent rose aroma. The fruit are highly perishable and should be consumed as soon as they ripen.
The evergreen leaves are glossy with an attractive dark green colour. This plant is considered an invasive plant in Kwa-Zulu Natal and the Western Cape.
