The jabuticaba tree from South America is unique for bearing grape-like purple fruits directly on its trunk, unlike typical trees.
Native to Brazil and nearby countries, its fruits are eaten raw or used for jams, juices, and wine.
The tree’s name comes from Tupi words meaning “place of tortoises,” and its white pulp is sometimes called “turtle fat.”
The leaves change from salmon to dark green, and the fruit ripens quickly in about 20 to 25 days.
Social media users admire its unusual fruiting and share stories of enjoying its bounty. Though rare outside its region,
the jabuticaba tree highlights nature’s creativity and beauty, offering both nourishment and wonder.
