Hi, Shireen:
Jaboticaba (also spelled Jabotacaba) is a wonderful plant for indoors. It
can tolerate surprisingly low light levels - If you have a South window that
gets too hot, just move it across the room! I fyou keep it in the window,
don't forget to turn it so that all sides get equal light.
The only print article I know of is in the BCI magazine, Bonsai May/June
1993 (about 3 pages)
The issue can be ordered at
http://www.bonsai-bci.com/backsale/backsale.html
There is also a species guide at:
http://www.bonsai-bci.com/species/jaboticaba.html
In the summer, it will be happier out of doors in light shade.
Where are you located?

Subject: [IBC] Jaboticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora) tips?
Hi again ... another question ...
I saw a plant at a local nursery that really
caught my eye: Jaboticaba (Myrciaria cauliflora).
It already looked like a miniature tree, with
exquisite branching and lovely small leaves.
I plan to keep it indoors all year round,
perched on a window sill facing south. (This
location was recommended by the store's plant
guru.) Does anyone have experience with this
plant as an indoor bonsai?
thanks!
shireen
