Rambutan pollen
« on: April 30, 2017, 08:50:02 PM »
I have three korlan trees, theyre not big enough to flower yet but are growing at a fast rate, im hoping in a year or so they will start. I want to try hybridising them with rambutan. Korlan are self fertile and more cold hardy but the fruit is smaller and less sweet. Id like to get some rambutan/pulusan genes in there and see if I can get sime more flavorful offspring. Howeverhave had little luck finding a mature male rambutan or pulusan to purchase. I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to store/post pollen of these plants and how to collect it? Im hoping to find someone in qld or the nt with a mature tree and get them to send me some when mine start to fruit.

I learned: never give lime or dolomite to rambutan....i did it wrong.
