I was wondering if anyone knows of a source for kwai muk plants or seeds that will ship?

Thanks,

Ed

I got a plant shipped from Montoso in PR a couple of years ago.

The ones that I have tried have a very nice apricot flavor with citrus overtones! It's a small fruit but one of my favorites!

Thanks,

Ed

You must have tried the same I have , they do come true from seed , seeds take a long time to germinate and slow grower in the first years .

Yes I'm still looking for seeds. Do you want to trade or sale them?

Thanks,
Ed

Lakoocha is more like apricot and kwai muk is variable but fruit are smaller,rounder and more citrussy and the trees are more cold tolerant.There is almost a fig like quality about the fruit form. Those with brighter red inside have stronger flavor in my experience to date.There have been past threads that deal with this species.
