Rolinia exsucca. Jacartia digitata
« on: March 26, 2018, 01:47:27 AM »
2 very rare fruits from the peruvian amazon. Both very delicious.
Jacartia digitata. 25 to 30 ft spiny tree in caricaceae family. tastes like an extremely good papaya with a rich coffee cake flavor. 3$ each or 10 for 25$.
Rolinia exsucca. Medium height. Taste like succulent morsels of lemon custard. Food of howler monkeys. 3$ per seed or 10 for 25$.

Very interesting!  I'm curious how you got the seeds / fruit in California, how fresh the seeds are right now, and what elevation / climate they grow in.

Fruits were harvested from the peruvian jungle. Shipped them to cali. Picked the fruits a month ago. Trees grow close to the rio de madre dios. Lowland jungle.

Hi

This species of jaracatia the seed has been alive for more than a year!

And the seedlings grow crazy fast! It is a very tasty fruit, already that Annona I ate and I found bad, it has a taste of brine, but worth as a collection item, good sales.
