Nursery contributed plant descriptions
This easy-to-grow fruit will produce attractive orange-to-pinkish berries from spring through fall. When grown in a sunny spot 'Orange Berry" will begin flowering and fruiting at 2' in height. When in warmer climates, like its native homeland of Southeast Asia or Northeast Australia, fruit will continue year-round. The fruit has a sweet, honey-like flavor and is often used in jams. Closely related to the citrus family, with foliage that is shiny and aromatic.
