First Good Harvest of Kwai Muk

[fruitlovers]

At long last i got a good sampling of these fruits and they are very tasty indeed. Very much unlike any other artocarpus, except Lakoocha, bur far tastier than Lakoocha. They have a nice berry like background taste and with nice soft texture.

One of my favorite fruits in PR when we could get them.  Really an odd fruit.  The look and feel screams "don't eat this!", but has a great flavor.  Unfortunately, the grafted plant died back and all attempts to graft the remaining portion has failed.  Bummer.

I totally agree with Oscar an excellent Artocarpus . I planted a lot of seeds last season , didn't remember they took so long to germinate , 4 months.....so I have now plenty of root-stock to graft on .

 Hi,

 My tree usually aborts all the fruits, but one or two, due to poor pollination.
 This year, for some reason, is has many more oblong fruits than usual, which
 I am hoping will mature properly. I will have to wait several weeks still, they
 should be ready by late October, early November.

 If I remember correctly, my tree is a sibling to Luc's and Oscar's.

How long does a seedling Kwai muk take to come into production in ideal conditions?

Well mine has been in the ground for two years. Finally growing a bit.  Oscar I think my tree was a couple years old already when I got it from you.   Yeah these guys are pretty slow.
