DB are suppose to have an apple flavor to them.

Looking forward to other replies and info. on these two two plants.
I've got both, and Manzano. both have fruited for me, I had a dwarf Brazilian fruit Nov. last year. didn't make it thru the winter. got raja puri fruiting now.

raja puri do better with winters but if I had a few less frosts last winter my db would have made it. dwarf Brazilian grow fast tho. almost as fast as namwa.

the db are larger fruits.
