Dear Friends,
after two years of great success, I decided to sell again my surplus of rarities to all proud collectors worldwide. But this year, I have something more special for you… for sure, not easy to find!
If you are interested, just drop me a private message with the list of the red codes you find in the upper part of the pics, then I'll book the order and will tell you later also the delivery costs depending on your needs and location. Considering the amount of requests I had the last years, I suggest you to book as quick as you can your desires!
Here is the list!
Annona coriacea:
the seeds of this variety has been collected from a good flavoured/sweet fruit. Orange pulp. Usually likes a lot of sun and dry climate, but I found out this a quite flexible specie. Middle/slow growing.
Price 25 Euro.

Annona dioica:
One of my favourite! It's a great bush a collector cannot miss. Quite flexible about the soil and rain. I'm certain about the good texture and flavour of this fruit thank to my good friend who had the chance to taste this jewel from Cerrado (Brasil). White pulp inside, green skin outside! Middle/slow growing.
Price per plant: 35 Euro

Annona diversifolia
This one is an amazing fruit coming from the seeds reserve from our friend Raul in Mexico who almost risked his life to get the best. These are a selection of the best flavoured ilama. Not sure about the fruit colour, but looking at the young gems colour, probably red/pink pulp.
Price per plant: 30 Euro

Annona montana (Gaspar)
This is a good memory of one of the best botanical friend I ever had, Anestor, where I was lucky enough to get few seeds of his beloved A.montana "Gaspar" variety, one of the few montana with good flavour and texture, perfect for fruit juice. These are the lasts I have. Yellow pulp, green skin. R.I.P. my friend.
Price per plant: 25 Euro

Annona monticola
I even don't remember how many years I spent looking for this Cerrado treasure…. and after a lot of challenges, thanks to my friend Salvador, I got it! It's an AMAZING plant with also a good flavoured fruit, different from the other Annonaceae. It has soft fur outside, fashinating hazel colour, sexy fruit shape, green/white pulp inside. It's a plant very hard to get and a classic very slow growing specie, very appreciable, a true collector item. It's obvious to say this is something you cannot easily find even in a botanical garden..
Price per plant: 35 Euro

Annona rugulosa
This specie has a lot of rememberings to me. My great friend Anestor, who sadly passed away too early, sent me a batch of seeds many months ago and then I got some plants of his "best Annona I ever eaten" he was used to say. Endemic of his region, but now endangered, it was a real discovery for me, especially if you consider the soil/climate/temperature/humidity flexibility. White pulp, green/yellow skin. medium/fast grower.
Price per plant: 35 Euro

Annona vepretorum
A.vepretorum was a matter of a secret affair I was witness of! When I received the seeds of this specie I even didn't know anything about it. But when I started looking for more info, I discovered that it was an ultra rare specie from Caatinga region in Brasil with an excelent flavour and very good texture. Drought resistant and sun lover! Unfortunately, few trees remained endemic and I bet that in few years it will be one of the most sought after fruit from collectors. Well before deciding to sell here these natural masterpieces, I already received many requests but I preferred to be fair in my offers, as usual. Creamy yellow pulp, sweet, green skin. Slow growing.
Price per plant: 40 Euro

Annona warmingiana (Annona pygmaea)
Ok, this specie need just one comment: ultra rare nano-Annona! The amazing to see also the fruit/texture is good, as per my friend who had the chance to taste it fresh. Definitely very slow growing and tipically a collector's item you cannot miss. Very few available, not easy to germinate.
Price per plant: 40 Euro

Passiflora nitida (this one a rare variety from Cerrado)
I'm very focussed on Annonaceae, but this is an exception. When I saw the photos of the pulp/colours and shape of the fruit I got mad! This is a rare WILD CERRADO P.nitida from my friend Salvador. Than means it tolerates drought very well and is really a sun-lover!!! Truly an amazing specie for your garden. I love it so much...
Price: 30 Euro
