	Barbados Cherry
		The Barbados cherry, a member of the Malpighiaceae, is an interesting example of a fruit that rose, like Cinderella, from relative obscurity about 40 years ago.
		The Barbados cherry is a large, bushy shrub or small tree attaining up to 20 ft (6 m) in height and an equal breadth; with more or less erect or spreading and drooping, minutely hairy branches, and a short trunk to 4 in (10 cm) in diameter.
		At room temperature–85º F (29.44º C) in Puerto Rico–canned Barbados cherries and also the juice lose color and fresh flavor and 53% to 80% of their ascorbic acid content in one month, and metal cans swell because of the development of CO Refrigeration at 44.6º F (7º C) considerably reduces such deterioration.

		Barbados cherry (Malpighia tunicifolia) is a large shrub native to the West Indies and parts of Central America.
		Most Barbados cherries are subject to nematode damage to the root system so in real sandy soils with low organic content they may not be as vigorous as those on very rich organic soils or ones with a good deal of topsoil with high organic content.
		Propagation of Barbados cherries is usually by cuttings, air layering and occasionally by seed, but seedlings generally have very poor quality fruit compared to those propagated vegetatively.
