Surinam Cherry
I have a surinam cherry that is presently blooming. I was surprised, however, to notice fruit. In short, it's producing fruit less than six months from when it last produced fruit.
Is it confused, or is this normal? |

Normal, at least for Florida. Would not worry a bit. I would remove all of the fruit and let the tree put tat energy in to growing.

fruiting 2x
I get them flowering and fruiting 2x a year too.
My Barbados cherry(s) sets fruit all growing season, maybe 3 or more its difficult to count. The Powder Puff flowers ALL year long, kinda slows down in the winter but its still flowering. Tropicals are awesome! When you have a long & hot growing season its gets rewarding. Oh, by the way did it mention it was 102F Thursday(3-13), Friday(3-14) and Saturday (3-15) here! And were still in WINTER. LOL redhawk
