INTRODUCTION The Myrtaceae, consisting of trees and shrubs found in the
tropics, subtropics, and temperate Australia, comprises about 140 genera and 3,000 species. The leaves are most commonly opposite, and frequently are glandular dotted; stipules are absent or vestigial. The flowers are actinomorphic, commonly with a 4-5-parted calyx and corolla that is frequently reduced and inconspicuous compared to the well-developed androecium of numerous stamens. The gynoecium consists of a single compound pistil of 2-5 carpels, a single style and stigma, and a partly to wholly inferior ovary with 2-5 locules and 2-many axile ovules (or occasionally a single locule with intruded parietal placentation). The fruit is usually a berry or loculicidal capsule.

Fruits: one- or two-seeded berry. Seeds: oblong, soft, grooved on one side and 1.5 cm
Growing Environment: Requires a humid, warm tropical climate with lots of water year-round.
Propagation: By seeds and cuttings. Native Range: Native to the Moluccas, (islands of Eastern
Indonesia, once known as the Spice Islands.) Active Compounds: Clove oil is 60 to 90 percent eugenol,

BRIEF DESCRIPTION Common name- jambu air "water guava“ Has evergreen leaves 10-25 cm long and 5-10 cm broad. The flowers are white, 2.5 cm diameter, with four petals
and numerous stamens. The fruit is a bell-shaped edible berry, with colors ranging
from white, pale green, green, red, purple, crimson, to deep purple or even black, 4-6 cm long in wild plants.
The flowers and resulting fruit are not limited to the axils of the leaves and can appear on nearly any point on the surface of the trunk and branches.
When mature, the tree is considered a heavy bearer and can yield a crop of up to 700 fruits.
The very middle holds a seed that's situated in a sort of cotton-candy-like mesh. The mesh is edible but flavorless.

a turpentine smell.The bark is scaly gray and the trunk forks into multiple trunks about 3 - 5' from the ground.
Jamun has fragrant white flowers in branched clusters at stem tips and purplish-black oval edible berries.The juicy fruit-pulp contains resin, gallic acid and tannin; it tastes usually from acid to fairly sweet.
This berry has only one seed.
Jambolan starts bearing fruit in 4 - 7 years.
Due to recalcitrant nature of the seeds, they have a short viable life, can not be dried well and can not withstand low temperatures.

•In the Philippines and Suriname wine is made from the fermented fruit.
•The leaves are used against diarrhea and fever; the fruit against diarrhea and abdominal pains.
•The seed is used against diabetes and blood pressure. Bark, leaves and flowers against diabetes.
GUAVA
GUAVA Common name : guava Sciencetific name : psidium guajava Species :guajava
kingdom plantaedivision magnoliophytaclass magnoliopsidasubclass rosidaeorder myrtalesfamily myrtaceaesubfamily myrtoideaetribes myrteaegenus psidium
BRIEFLY EXPLAIN Fruits : usually 4 to 12 cm long, are round or
oval depending on the species.. Guava pulp may be sweet or sour, off-white to deep pink, with the seeds in the central pulp of variable number and hardness, again depending on species.
Skin : . The outer skin may be rough, often with a bitter taste, or soft and sweet. Varying between species, the skin can be any thickness, is usually green before maturity, but becomes yellow, maroon, or green when ripe.
The leaves and bark have a high tannin content. The bark is used for tanning hides, while the leaves produce a black dye.
USES The fruit of the guava is highly valued and
used in a number of different ways. It is very high in vitamin C and vitamin A . The fruit can be eaten raw, but uncooked guavas are usually sliced and used in salads or desserts.
The wood of the guava tree is yellow to red, and is suitable for carpentry and turnery. It can also be used as a fuel wood, and to make charcoal.
The leaves and bark have a high tannin content. The bark is used for tanning hides, while the leaves produce a black dye.
ECOLOGY Grows inOccur in agricultural areas, natural
forests, riparian zones, ruderal/disturbed, scrub/shrublands.
Grow well on heavy clay, marl, light sand, gravel gravel bars or limestone at pH 4.5-9.4.
Occur in agricultural areas, natural forests, riparian zones, ruderal/disturbed, scrub/shrublands
Red malaysian guava usually found in malaysia that can grow under optimum condition.
HOW TO RECOGNIZE THE MYRTACEAE FAMILY …
Are a family of dicotyledon plants Morphology: All species are woody With essential
oils
The leaves are evergreen, alternate to mostly opposite, simple, and usually with an entire (not toothed) margin.
Flower parts in multiples of four or five. The flowers have a base number of five petals, though in
several genera the petals are minute or absent. The stamens are usually very conspicuous, brightly coloured
and numerous.
Syzygium jambos Syzygium claviflorum
Anatomy: The phloem is located on both sides of the xylem, not just
outside as in most other plants.
Ecology: Have a wide distribution in tropical and warm-temperate
regions of the world, and are typically common in many of the world's biodiversity hotspots
