Fruits from Central and South America, particularly Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, and Ecuador, include the blackberry jam fruit (Randia formosa). This is a rare tropical to subtropical fruit that grows as a short, bushy shrub that is both 3 to 4 feet tall in a container and just 4-5 feet tall in the ground. It can also be coaxed to grow into a little tree.
Large, highly fragrant white blooms give way to beautiful tiny fruits with interiors that range in colour from deep purple to black and taste sweet, tart, and strongly evocative of blackberry jam. About 3 cm × 2 cm in size, the subglobose fruits.
Numerous health advantages are provided by the abundance of polyphenols, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and other potent antioxidants found in blackberries.
