Description

Delivered in bigger tube – price is adjusted for increase postage!

Pretty evergreen shrub or slow growing tree that can stand a couple of degrees of frost. Luma is easy to grow but does not like water-logging or drought. 

White flowers are followed by blueberry-sized, coloured fruit that are edible and delicious. Traditionally, the leaves are used to treat diarrhoea, dysentery, and ingestion. 

The warm spicy flavoured leaves can be used as a condiment, but have to be removed  before serving.
