The uvalha, scientifically known as Eugenia pyriformis and sometimes referred to as Eugenia uvalha, is an appealing fruit characterized by its orange-yellow skin and distinctive pear shape, typically growing to a size of 1 to 2 inches. These aromatic fruits offer a delightful sweet yet tart flavor, making them a local favorite. The plant itself is a medium-sized, shrubby tree. Its leaves release a noticeable aromatic scent when crushed. In its native Brazilian habitat, the tree flowers between August and December, with the fruits ripening relatively quickly within the following one to two months.   

While the uvalha fruit is enjoyed fresh and widely used for making juices within its native range of Brazil, its cultivation remains largely confined to this region, making it virtually unknown elsewhere. The tree appears to flourish in humid, tropical environments and requires regular watering and well-drained soil.
