Wanted ANY tropical fruits for $ or trade Northern stuff

[Francis_Eric]

Hi I am willing to try anything I can't get at a store (different cultivars )(for cash or trade )

I am not sure if I want anything out of the country if it isn't canned do not want to get into any trouble
also do not want to import any pests -- (well unless there is a way to send to the USDA First,
but I know nothing of that unless it's a plant material (i heard aliitle)

Ifv you have anything in mind let me know

I could mail ginkgo leaves
Prickly ash leaves (tooth ahce tree sorry no fruit I have just a tiny amount , and a tooth may give me problems until it gets pulled)

Lemon quince (tea or fruit maybe)



I can give a larger list if you have anything let me know
I haven't known if the tree near my house has pawpaws , but I can see (Think it's too late at least for that one )
I will see in a day or two if I come up forging
had a bubble gum taste

Persimmon is in season
These are cultivars (breed by Jerry Lehman (some may be from Cliff England )
Jerry Lehman Passed away this spring Pruning his tree's

These do have seeds (some may not )

Jerry Lehman Had one with 36 brix , and dried , but I may take those for the seeds
if I can get my hands on one (i'm not certain yet as I have visited Since He passed, but not a certain thing )

Note I do a lot of forging for wild stuff so if unusual stuff is your thing I can find some of that
Just need to hear what your interested in or have tried in the past.

I also may have Material stuff (I do auctions but it may be food related health food medicinal Herbs etc. nothing Illegal )
I have plantian (Leaf Herb )(not banana ) to get rid of itches as well (but you should be able to find it yourself in your yard)

Sorry, not much available here during this time of the year.
I'm at the tail end of Starfruit and June Plum season and will start getting some avocados soon.

Summer is when everything gets going.
You might find some Atemoyas, Sugar apples, Canistel and a good amount of Avocado and Starfruit

(The above is for South Florida)

Thank you never really had most Tropical fruit fully ripe Only at the grocery store
Thinking of going to spice park (also would try things bad tasting , becauase I like bitter flavors for wine making also.)

Would love some natives even Golfer apple (to play around with recipes Wine or drying  )
or hog plums -- sea berry (for smoothies maybe or flavoring or candy making I've only made ginger candy so no expert here)

I know it isn't in S florida ,but one of the only things I tried fully ripe was cherimoya
 ( and it was like $10 bucks or more at a Mexican shop the other was $5, but that one didn't taste ripe enough, )
mamey sapota was also  very good tsasted like Pumpkin pie (grow them for fun at home. ).

If I do travel to Florida I can go for a week (work one week on one off )
Would it be worth it to get seeds at spice park love nature , and biking so wouldn't be a deal breaker otherwise)

[Francis_Eric]

Would you be willing to send some
Not certain about the postage , but would pay it a head of time if you send.

Also would want it tracked ,so it doesn't get lost in the mail.
 and willing I'd  pay for next day delivery if it goes bad fast.

Fruit and spice is worth the visit if you have never been. Unfortunately they lost a good amount of mature trees after Hurricane Irma. The coconut grove was nice and they have lots of mangoes and jackfruit.
