Njaval (White) Fruit

The Njaval plant (Syzygium cumini) is a tropical fruit tree that is native to the Indian subcontinent and Southeast Asia. It is also known as Java plum, black plum, or Indian blackberry. The tree can grow up to 30 meters tall, but is often smaller in cultivation. The leaves are dark green and glossy, and the flowers are small, white, and fragrant.

The fruit of the Njaval plant is a small, purple to black berry that is about 1-1.5 cm in diameter. It has a sweet and slightly astringent flavor and is often used in traditional Indian cooking to make chutneys, jams, and other sweet or savory dishes. The fruit is also used to make wine and vinegar.

In addition to its culinary uses, the Njaval plant has a long history of use in traditional medicine. The leaves, bark, and fruit are all used in various traditional remedies to treat a range of ailments, including diabetes, diarrhea, and inflammation.

The Njaval plant is generally easy to grow and is tolerant of a wide range of soils, although it prefers well-draining soils with a slightly acidic pH. It thrives in warm, humid climates and can be propagated from seed or cuttings. The plant is also grown as an ornamental tree for its attractive foliage and fragrant flowers.
