I bought this Cermai plant for the Herb Garden in my college in 2009. It bore fruit once in 2010 but there was not much fruit. I had a pleasant surprise waiting for me yesterday. One of the janitors informed me that the tree was again bearing fruit. I went and harvested the fruit with Hajah Kamariah and Baz at around noon. We had a bountiful crop.
Here is some info about this plant which is nicknamed Anggur Malaysia or Malaysian Grapes by the village folks.
English name: Otaheite gooseberry, Malay gooseberry, Star gooseberry
Scientific name: Phyllanthus acidus L.
Family: Euphorbiaceae
