How cold hardy is this species?Cold hardiness of the species is not known.
Diospyros, Greek ‘dios’ (divine), and ‘pyros’ (fruit), referring to the excellent fruit of the genus.
How is the fruit of this one?
Yes, I personally know Marang patch bud grafted on A. hirsutus.Wild jackfruit (hirsutus) can be used as rootstock for Jackfruit.
Do you know if marang or pedali wood will graft with a. hirstus?
How is the quality of fruit vipin? This wild jack was planted around 5 year ago on a friends land in HI, still no fruitThe yellow-orange arils tasted very good. Literally no latex when ripe! Avarage sized fruits.
Anyway good luck with it and I lost a sarteneja reticulata to soil fungus during the rainy season but my nearby ilamas did fine. Go figure.Thank you.
Ok 200 days and only a short dry season is a bit more than expected and if your lowest minimums rarely get down below say 21c then it may be a challenge.The fungal problem is here all over Kerala.
You must be wetter than Cochin.https://weather-and-climate.com/average-monthly-Rainfall-Temperature-Sunshine,cochin,India
I am surprised if you are getting much winter rain but yes I know they handle Darwin's climate and also around Tully here with over 4000mm. Maybe it is the varieties or spots they are planted because I suspect your climate is ok for them still.
150 rain days a year mostly in 4 month monsoon, 3000mm/average, rarely reached 40c or under 17c perhaps? Around 10 latitude? Should be ideal for seedlings and they should have long and productive lives starting fruiting after just 3 or 4 years. Where did you observe this short life due to humidity? Those days of 36c down to 26c at night and the air like syrup for a few months should be fine for them.I live in Kerala, India where we have 200 days of rain in an year. In my area (coastal lowland), summer day time temperature goes up to 39c and winter night time minimum temperature will be around 22c.
🙄😒Here in Florida, ilama on custard apple does not make a good match.Delayed incompatibility?
It seems to have issues grafted on both custard apple and sugar apple. Delayed incompatibility, sudden death after a couple to few years and non-floweing/fruiting.

Lovely work there. I hope there is no delayed incompatibility.I read somewhere (online) that they grow faster and produce fruits. Anyway, let's wait and see... 😊
3 year old Wild jackfruit seedling.
The same tree after a year (4 years from seed). Now, it is about 30+ft.

Brazilian rare speciesWhere did you get that info? It's possible that it is the same species, which is native to much of the northern part of South America, including Brazil.
