I would like to use this amazing plant as part of my unit on West Africa. The only place in Florida I know has it is in Homestead, Florida at the Fruit And Spice Park. Heres a little more info on the plant from Wikipedia. Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

A Miracle Fruit Plant, sometimes known as Miraculous Berry, (Sideroxylon dulcificum/Synsepalum dulcificum Daniell) is a plant native to Tropical West Africa. It produces 2 crops per year, after the end of the rainy season. The plant grows in bushes up to 20 feet high in its native habitat, but does not usually grow higher than 5 feet in cultivation. It is an evergreen plant that produces red berries. Although the berry itself is not sweet, they contain a protein called Miraculin, which masks the tongue's sour taste buds, causing foods such as lemons and limes to taste sweet. This effect lasts for up to 30 minutes but sometimes longer, maybe two hours. It will not however, make sweet foods taste sweeter.

You can always ask your local green grocer to order it for you. Usually they will order 1 crate as a test and if it sells well they may begin to carry it as available. Good Luck!
