I’m Ayana, the Barbados Cherry and I'm native to the Caribbean. My leaves are evergreen and lanceolate shaped. I have small pink flowers that grow in clusters in the spring. If healthy, my flowers eventually turn into little red fruits called Acerola high in vitamin C and antioxidants which is used to make juice, jams and jellies. One Acerola cherry contains the total daily allowance of Vitamin C, about 50-100 times than that of an orange or lemon.
I like full sun to indirect bright natural light and warmer temperatures to bloom. The best spot for me would be a sunny location with some afternoon shade.
To water, submerge my pot up to the rim for 5-10 minutes, and let me drain thoroughly. Submerge about once every 5-7 days, or when my pot feels about 1/2 lighter. Keep me in temperatures above 50 F all year. For good air circulation, put me in a room with a fan or open window. You can fertilize me 1x/month in the growing season for an abundant Acerola harvest.
Symbolism: The Barbados Cherry is one of the richest natural sources of Vitamin C, and thus has historical significance as a go-to remedy for colds and flu. In Feng Shui, cherries carry the Fire element, symbolizing courage and passion. Its Chi, 'Li,' illuminates paths and inspires personal growth through understanding and learning.
Includes basic care instructions. We always recommend doing more research as each environment-- and tree!-- is unique. Plate sold separately.
