Seeking seeds
« on: January 05, 2017, 11:30:08 PM »
I'm a big growing from seed person with all the different types of plants I collect. I think it comes from raising beetle larva, but I have the patience to do it. My greenhouse is currently being built and I received a seed starting tray as a gift and I would like to purchase many kinds of tropical fruit seeds at low prices. I have a list, but if you like a certain fruit and have seeds, feel free to offer them.

My list so far is:
Eugenia neonitidia - starcherry
Eugenia involucrata - cherry of the rio grande
Cinnamomum Zeylanicum - Ceylon cinnamon
Theobroma bicolor, grandiflorum and augustifolia - white cacao, capucu, etc.
Annonas besides squamosa
Garcinia sp. specifically intermedia, humilis (achacha), Mexican mangosteen and most of all mangostana
Salacca zalacca
Inga sp.
Abiu
Myrciara cauliflora
Longan
Ramubtan
Wax jambu
Starfruit
Mangifera torquenda
Duguetia sp.
Black Eugenia uniflora
Herrania sp.
Litsea garciae
Mammea americana
Parmentiera aculeata/cereifera
Guarana
Others I may think of. Also seeking sweet Hylocereus and Selenicereus megalanthus cuttings.

The hardest plants to grow are often those most worth growing.
