OMG!!! SOOOOOOO happy i found your channel since I have seeds and the bonus is finding out you're down the street!!! Headed there tomorrow!!!

[@williambryce8527]

Going to give one a try! Something new!

As soon as you said 'jamun', it reminded me of my fav dessert: 'gulab janum'. The word 'janum' in that dessert refers to this fruit because it is similar in color and shape (though the size of the dessert dough balls is much bigger). This fruit is very popular in Konkan (west coast of India) -- also famous for its Alphonso mango. There are two types of flesh -- white and dark purple. The dark purple variety is sweeter. You can roll the fruit between your fingers and a hard surface to let the juices separate (inside the fruit).

thank you friend

[@abc_cba]

It's one of my favourite monsoon fruits as its native to India. The softer and plump it gets, the less tart or puckery it becomes. Allow it to swell. I also chill the fruit that condenses the sugar and makes the fruit even more tastier.

[@sagittarius2811]

Jamun Tree from Subcontinent 🙂 I'm from Pakistan 🇵🇰 and i have it in my garden

[@BloggerEngineer]

Great information as usual. This fruit is very common in Punjab, Pakistan. Tasty but creates a mess wherever fruit drops.

[@DanishF]

JAH-man. The word jaamani means purple. This fruit is also purple colored. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@user-cs1xz]

omg tysm for this video!! SO helpful, you covered everything!! really appreciate showing container vs in ground. i just bought one from etsy but ive saved your link and will buy trees from you in the future. i have to keep my jamun (grown from cuttings, 2 yrs old) in a contain for a year...or i give it to my family and they can put it in the ground. the grower told me it could live forever in a 7 gallon bucket but as i do more research i dont think so!

[@naazmj786927]

I’m from india and we called Jamun , jamun fruit good for diabetes

[@cvc7395]

Great information and video.. Want to know if this will survive in New Jersey winters ? if so, how big should i let this grow in the pot and then transfer to the yard ?

[@qctropicals]

too cold buddy, your soil freezes in the winter :(

[@AQUABLUE00]

thx man & great informative veido as alwyas, i live in saudi arabia , central region same weather in arizona so i wonder do you cover your small growing plant in the ground with Shade Net to survive in the summer ? or you use any protection from sun & hot air waves ? 2nd Q:do you have experience with growing Curry Leaf (Murraya koenigii) plant ? 🙏🙏

[@qctropicals]

full sun all day friend. They love the heat but just like you and I, will die quickly if it goes dry in full sun first summer in ground. Yes I have a curry leaf tree in ground, I'll make a vid about it soon :).

[@topramen5884]

Java likely comes from the name of the Island in Indonesia. There are a few different species that are called Java plum, or jamun and grow in different areas! Some are native to the Philippines

[@qctropicals]

interesting, thank you

[@visnuexe]

Can you coppace this tree, meaning to cut the main trunk to encourage lower branching growth, and it still makes fruit?

[@qctropicals]

yes you can top it off no issues.

[@edjo3430]

can this tree handle direct sun in northern california? I'm talking 110 degrees. and would it be ok in clay soil, or should I amend it?

[@qctropicals]

buddy I'm in the desert, what do you think?

[@9louel]

They can fruit in a big pot (depends on location I guess I'm in the tropics), get a grafted one. Mine is only about 7 feet in a 20 inch diameter pot and it gives fruit (but not a lot)

[@qctropicals]

interesting

[@robertzolfaghari5418]

I’ve had my jamun tree for the past 8-9 years and just last year it began to grow fruit. But it only produced a few fruit and the tree itself is like 40-50 feet high. Any recommendations for it grow more fruit next year? Gets full sun, water from drip system 2-3 times a week, and gets very lightly fertilized

[@qctropicals]

where do you live?

[@harmindergm2220]

Can i grow this tree in East Texas. It is really humid, and we do get snow for two days in a year.

[@qctropicals]

too cold

[@DiogoMendonca-jz5mq]

Yes, it fits in Texas! And it fits in most places in the world! It's a fantastic fruit tree. Here in Brazil we have many!

[@gracechen7615]

What about growing this in Seattle?

[@qctropicals]

without protection it will get destroyed

[@-ssch]

How long it takes for it to fruit in container if it’s feasible here in QC

[@qctropicals]

friend I explain this in the video :). Not recommended for container growing.

[@GreenJustin8]

Possible freeze coming tonight. Good luck.

[@qctropicals]

thank you!. Based on the day temperature it will probably be in the mid 30's very briefly. Nothing to worry about.

[@docnandita]

Jamun comes from Jamuni or purple color.

[@sigma8995]

I bought my java plum tree and planted it in my yard about 2-3 years ago. But it is a bit bigger than the tree you are showing at 4:04. Is that normal? It also has a bunch of brown spots on it, looks like rust?

[@qctropicals]

plants are just like you and I, they are all different. As long as it's growing, it's normal. Brown spots after winter is usually due to frost damage.

[@MrDollazncents]

​@@qctropicalsdo you sale cuttings or only seedlings?

[@knicks252525]

is it messy, i want to have shade for my patio with furniture underneath it. but dont want it to be stained with fallen fruit etc

[@qctropicals]

yes it stains and anything that fruits will be messy. You probably need an evergreen shade tree instead.

I didn’t know we can grow this in USA. Is it possible to grow in zone 8b? Do you sell this plant?

I’m from India and June-July time we would go on munching the fruit almost all afternoon. We comeback home with mouth turned purple 😅

My jamun is 15 ft tall no fruits yet. I planted 7 yeers ago. I feed organic fertilizer.

[@qctropicals]

[@tavyfavorite1149]

Mesa az, there are two kinds of jamun tree, what kind do you have?.

[@JamunForest]

Thank you for the great video! The continent of jamun (jambudivpa) is the region where humans live and the only place where a being may become enlightened. Jamun is sacred for Hinduism, Jainism and Buddhism. Who eats jamun their organs don't get tired, they live forever young. There are hundreds of scientific research pointing the jamun tree is a complete drug store.

Wow! That’s why I’ve never see anyone old in those countries. They all look young even if they’re 70s 😂😂

Javanese call this fruit as JUWET or DJUWET

[@parvathitiruviluamala9870]

In India it is called Jamun, in Hindi. I don't know what is origin of the word. In different parts of India it has different names. Good info. I live in San Diego and have a huge Jamun tree. It fruits a lot and most of them fall on the ground. I have tons of little Jamun plants and don't know what to do with them !!

I live in San Diego as well and I have a huge jamun tree, I have tons of little jamun plants as well and give them to family and friends to plant them in their house

Hi! I am in San Diego too and considering buying a Jamun tree. I heard it gets messy a lot, has to be 10-15 feet away from the home. What are your thoughts and experiences? Thank you 😊
