Miracle Fruit Plant (Tree) Synsepalum dulcificum USA

It came in a well packaged box. The plant had no damage to it and was a nice green like it is supposed to be. I am following the directions to keep it in full shade for a week and I watered it with fresh distilled water that is running through the soil that drains well through the roots to flow away. I have a new pot coming that I will also replant this little guy into when that arrives. I’m going to update this as this plants grows with any developments that come up. The listing says that the plants are six months old. Miracle berry fruit at about two years old. So we shall see if this plant lives and fruits.Update: One of my cats decided that it was ok to chew on my little plant not once but two separate times. She pulled off three leafs and damaged one leaving only one good leaf. I have since move my berry plant to an out of reach self for now where it gets the light it requires. Thinking this plant was doomed I waited and saw that it’s actually recovering ok and has new growth on it. So I think I got a nice hardy plant. I have also replanted it in a bigger pot because the roots where growing out the bottom of the original. The cat has never done that with any other plant in the house except her cat grass so beware cats seem to like to chew on them.Edit: I bought a second plant because I was worried my plant was dead. Keep cats away from your plant. Turns out it’s got two new sprouts coming off the main branch. It’s hard to see in the picture but they are coming in. The second plant is younger but came green and so far healthy. I’m going to wait a little while and then replant the little guy from the tiny pot it came in then it can really take off in growing.

Plants only three inches long. I will be dead before they bear fruit if they don’t die first.

Llego a tiempo y en buena condicion.Gracias🤩

Well, I received the tiny starter plant and I hope I can keep it alive for the next 5 years so I might get a berry off of the adult plant. But, what should I have expected? A large bush? I guess this is acceptable and I'm being unrealistic to think it should be a large plant. Fingers crossed that I can keep this tiny baby alive!

So i paid $24 for 2 little saplings when i have ordered the plant before, i got 2 fully potted plants for $25 each. Maybe things have shifted since the pandemic so people are now trying to cash in by sending you tiny twigs and charging a pretty high price. Very dissapointing. I dont know if these baby twigs will make it & i was charged the price i paid as if they were fully thriving plants. I dont believe i could in good concious sell something like this & charge what i have been charged. I have a pretty good green thumb, so i will do my due diligence to nurture these 2 little seedlings in the hopes that my investment will pay off in the long run.

Warmth and flavor do not apply to this rating since we are in the summer and the plant is only about three inches which need to gro for the next three years before I can taste. The packaging was excellent. It had sulking in my mailbox for days because I was expecting it at my door. Thank God I went to check the mail but it was really very fresh. Hopefully it will not die but so far, it’s doing well and will update later.

Searched for this plant at local nurseries with no luck. The plant (seedling) arrived in excellent shape and very healthy. The only complaint i had was it was very small, probably two inches out of the tiny pot. It takes about 4-6 years to start producing fruit from this size and I am looking forward to that.

It died it didnt seem to be healthy when I recieved it
