Wanted ASAP, One Fruiting Size Myrciaria vexator (Blue Grape)
« on: January 04, 2013, 11:30:17 AM »
I will need to see pictures, but I'm looking for a large bearing size Myrciaria vexator.

I can pick the tree up in South FL, near the turnpike or 95.

Thanks!

Depending on the price, and the health of the tree, I'm serious about buying at least one.  I will be ready to pick up and purchase the tree this coming Tuesday.

I just saw my first Myrciaria vexator tree today.  I got some fruits off the ground, but too far gone to eat.  How long will the seeds take to germinate?

probably 60-90 days.

I've had them take over 100 days.

be sure to eat the fruits properly, don't eat the skin, or try chewing the skin, just eat the pulp.  They are delicious this way.  They remind me of a rollinia mixed with a jabo.

I have been looking for seeds, if any one has any details let me know please. I will send an sase, buy, beg, borrow, or whatever. I have had real difficulty finding the seeds. I don't want a plant, I want to grow it from seed.(Sometimes its just more fun doing things the hard way)
Life is good

I'll have some seeds hopefully soon, my two plants have fruits on them now, about 1.5 month away from being ready to eat. I'll make sure to post here.

Just left Excalibur, having purchased a stunningly beautiful fruiting Myrciaria vexator in a 100gal pot.

also got some nice 45 gal black sapotes, and a nice 3gal maha chanok.

(they also had some very nice Myrciaria floribundas!  10ft tall, fruiting size! )

The more I shop at Excalibur, the more I'm impressed by their huge assortment of fruit trees!

BSBullie, thanks very much for helping me find the plants I couldn't find elsewhere.

I shall return again soon.

Which type of black sapotes did you get?

the top 8inches of the vexator bent, so it could stand up in the box truck.

we had a full load...

100gal m vexator
2x 45 gal black sapotes
25 gal + 45gal M. jaboticaba
3x65gal avocado (from Zill)
and a bunch of other little stuff.

we still have yet to unload!

I will try to take pics of the haul...once they're out of the truck.
 
it's a glorious bunch of trees.

"Excalibur", a seedling selected at their nursery.
The Black Sapote that Adam purchased and all our Black Sapote are grafted.  The variety is one that we named at the nursery and it is called Excalibur.

right, the grafted trees are from a seedling selected at Excalibur.

my friends loved the fruit, and requested that the tree they received was definitely the "Excalibur" variety.
