Wanted: Casimiroa pringlei "Pringle's Zapote"

[FruitFly]

Anyone have seeds of this plant? Or will have in not too distant future?

[Bush2Beach]

The ever elusive Casimiroa Pringlei! I would love to see this one come out of the woodwork.

[Vernmented]

Me too! I contacted some park out in Texas that used to sell seed but they never got back to me.

[Jack, Nipomo]

Mine is about 6 ft tall, but no fruit yet.  Next year?

Thanks for your response Jack! Keep me posted. Maybe we can do a trade? Let me know if there is anything you are looking for. Sounds Like there are some others here that are hoping to find the pringlei!

Cool! Have you tried grafting or airlayering it? I wonder if it is compatible with C. tetrameria or C. edulis.

[FruitFly]

I've heard rumors that it might be compatible with edulis. It's a more compact growers so it might serve to dwarf edulis.

Peckerwood has 1 gal trees for $15. They probably have 10 more in the nursery.

[RiversOFT]

Would anybody pick one up for me and ship it ?

[nattyfroootz]

Same here, Would really be stoked to get my hands on one or two!

[directrepeat]

I also got several bare-root ones, no idea whether they will survive. If they do then I will have extra.

[Matt N- San Marcos]

I have a few casimeroa pringlei seed to share.  Just picked some fruit today.

Hi Matt, I have a small one of these that won't be making fruit any time soon. Can I be a little nosy? How big and old is the tree? Does it have another for a pollinator? How would you describe the taste of the fruit? How big is the fruit? How big is the seed? Thanks! Dan

[FruitFly]

Pm sent.

[nattyfroootz]
