Description
Yumberry (myrica rubra) is native to China, and for thousands of years these unique fruits have been grown and appreciated by the Chinese people. Yumberry (also known as yang mei) is so popular there that about twice as many acres of Yumberry trees are grown in China as there are acres of apple trees in the United States.
There are over 100 varieties of Yumberry, ranging in colour from white to purple. The most common colour is a brilliant red. Yumberry trees reach about 15 to 30 feet high and the fruits ripen in the months of June and July.
The flavour of Yumberry juice has been compared to that of pomegranates, described as pleasantly tart with the perfect touch of sweetness.
Yumberry is high in vitamins, minerals, fibber, and nutrients, including vitamin C, thiamine, riboflavin and carotene.
