CRONDA

Is it bloom and what type of care it needs..

Carissa Macrocarpa- Natal Plum

Has edible fruits-Plums and fragrant white flowers. Very beautiful plant.

Put it in bigger pot with fresh soil. Wash leaves with water. Place it on cool surface like soil as marble gets hot and will heat from bottom making pot dry.

Kindly make sure if this one is not the decorative one, which do flower and edible fruit, but very slow growing and far less flowering, growth and fruiting than the Caronda which is used for hedging, and also makes a big bush. I have 4 decorative ones and about 10 the other ones.
I have uploaded a picture from my place for reference.

Thanks Mr yawer and greenkhi please look these close ups and I am waiting for any further information I don't know anything about that the nursery guy told me that it will blooms and I like its leave thats why I purchase it. if it will give fruit that's a treet for me

In my opinion this one is the decorative one which does give flowers and fruit too, but not like the other one in quality and quantity. The nurseries I visited showed me the both kinds in pots so I would advise you should visit the nursery who knows both kinds and is also able to SHOW YOU the both kinds. That would be the best way to pick the one which gives more edible fruit.
