Tropical Fruit Discussion / Annona for ID
« on: September 25, 2019, 07:13:54 AM »
Just found this fruit tree on our coffee plantation. It's probably 10 years old maybe more and is twenty feet in height. Here are some pictures of the leaves and of the immature fruit. Need help in identifying which annona this is.

Would a scion from a root rot infected plant also carry the disease?

Thanks so much Mark. I was wondering if inarching a healthy seeding onto a phytophthora affected plant would help to save it? Your prompt advice on this may help save another avocado plant that has just lost all its leaves and only a few buds remain on the plant. I have drenched and sprayed it with copper oxychloride and Mancozeb.

Thank you. I was wondering if inarching another healthy seedling onto a phytophthora affected plant will save the upper part of the plant? Suggestions are welcome.

I live in a sub-tropical area which has three months of heavy rain and scattered rain for the rest of the year. I'm currently using vermicompost and seaweed extract on my plants. No other fertilizers. Soil ph is slightly on the alkaline side at approx 7.5

The TDS (total dissolved solids) of water being use to water the plant is tested at below 100.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Rambutan leaf edges turning brown
« on: September 22, 2019, 07:01:14 AM »
I have this grafted Rambutan in an air-pot and it seems to be doing poorly. The edges of the leaves are turning brown slowly and there seems to be no new growth on the plant. Need help in identifying if this issue is due to a salt build up or whether it's a disease. Thanks in advance.

Need help in identifying the avocado in the picture below. Could this perhaps be a Reed?

Greetings, I am based in South India in a coffee growing district called Coorg. We enjoy sub-tropical weather climate here and are able to grow a wide variety of fruits. Unfortunately we have a lot of fruit bats around as well as birds and frequent wild elephant damage so we take what is left.

Thanks very much to the admins of this forum for providing a great platform to exchange information and make friends.

Looking forward to participating more on this platform.

Cheers
Bops
