As informed by the owner he bought this plant from Vietnam and through grafting has developed this new hybrid and has been selling it since last seven years. I saw it for the first time this year at the show at Rani baug. These are huge red fruits of Jamun, very juicy and more sweeter than the mormal small white ones seen in Mumbai. The botanical name was given to me by the owner, hope it is correct!

Forwarding again for Id confirmation or otherwise please.
Earlier relevant feedback:
“Yes the name is correct, but commonly it is known as Red Wax Jamun”
“How about S. aqueum, the Water Apple? Rgds, Shrikant Ingalhalikar”
“Thank you Shrikantji. Not sure about this because the fruit size of S. aqueum is smaller. I had my doubt about S. Samarangense also because our database has the fruit size much smaller than what the nursery has propagated, about 7 to 8 inches big fruits.

Rashida. ”
