Today I was spending a short afternoon rest at the
Tanjung Batu shoreline. Much to my delight I noticed this Sea Grape tree (
Coccoloba uvifera) fruiting and on some branches the fruits were ripe in purple colours.
Sea Grapes are a tropical tree that does well along coasts, well drained soil and in full sun. Note the almost circular shape of the leaves ( about 20 - 30 cm long.
The ripe fruits are edible. I have tried to propagate them previously by seeds and I found that the germination rate was about 70 %. Presently I do have a healthy specimen grown at my
eco-farm.
