ateymoya are best suited for Florida, also the "Painter" cherilata is becoming a very popular cultivar that seems to be well adapted and productive in Florida.  Green Planet Farm in Punta Gorda has Cherilata trees.

still shipping order now,

we are planting a new field this weekend and harvesting a bunch for our 2024 Fall season.

Jake, some are soft to chew if don't plan on juicing them with a cane press. some are harder, the fibers are different on each  one and flavor is slightly different also. growth habits are different and then there's visual differences.

Asian black is the softest easier to chew and peel and very ornamental. along with Florida red, don cinco, purple ribbon and kava rangi. 

hipasfolk, thanks for the support glad they are growing!

Thanks for the orders. Don't forget 10% off coupon code. great time to plant!

Thanks for sharing. Lots of interesting information in that research publication.

Im experimenting with lots species of guavas on my farm. that article enlightens me to more information about guava decline and also how interstocks and rootstocks really affects nutrient efficient uptake in grafted plants as I am also experimenting with rootstock and interstockss for annonas a lot.

It does appear indeed that guineense is used as interstock with cattleium as a rootstock for guajava grafts.  If you have salty soil it appears this would NOT be the best combo possible.  cattleium also may be a more resistant plant for you due to the nature of its waxier leaves. if you graft guajava and guineense interstock it may also reduce flow of water making the guajava grafts wilt more.(hypothesis-depending on graft compatibility) It's worth experimenting with though. It all starts with a problem you have then a way to find a solution to the problem.

I will try it here on my farm in south Florida but for different reasons. as cattlieum is also a more rugged plant that is nematode resistant and possibly more fusarium resistant and can handle the flooding high water table I have.

Okay went down today to take a pic of the fruit you are talking about palmtreeluke still hanging on that tree. I don't know what it is going to be like as it the first fruit on the tree.

woah, keep me posted!

Nice Job John! Super red skin! Was that that fruit that I spotted when i visited?
