 69/ Coccolaba spinescens 

The only species I have of this genus. Mostly dioecious. I’m only growing it bc it produces an absurd amount of sweet fruit when mature. Seedlings got aphids but mature plants don’t seem to have a problem. Katydids nibble on leaves. Grows well, only water when dry and that isn’t often. Protected from freezing. There is little info on cultivation. Mine is sheltered from wind and in part sun. 3yo and not flowering yet. Easy.
