Miracle Berry

$

Miracle berry is a small, evergreen shrub that grows up to 6-10 feet tall, known for its berries that temporarily alter taste perception, making sour foods taste sweet. It thrives in tropical to subtropical climates with partial shade and well-drained, acidic soil, making it a valuable addition to food forests for its unique fruit and ability to attract pollinators. The plant is typically propagated by seeds or cuttings, requires regular watering, and benefits from mulch to maintain soil moisture, with berries usually ripening in late summer.
