Hi Guanabanus

The 6 Annonaceae species details at present is as below:

Annonidium manni        Currently a field trip underway
Monodora brevipes        Sporatic fruiting (sourcing fruit now)
Monodora myristica       "
Monodora crispata         "
Xylopia aethicopicta      Currently not in fruit
Duguetia staudtii          Currently a field trip underway.

Troy,

do you have any information about the eating quality of those species?

Xylopia aethiopica and Monodora myristica are recorded as spices only in my literature for these species, and I believe it is safe to assume that goes for the other Monodora as well.

Anonidium manni .... Fruit is rather small at 6.5kg, 2 further fruits located but are not quite ripe enough...these are being monitored for future sales...small quantities of seeds located so far...fresh & ready to ship.

Uvariodendron connivens:

The seeds are used locally in Cameroon to treat a cough; the pulp is quite sweet.

Hey Felipe

Soren is right...the Monodoras & Xylopia are more of a spice substitute, i.e. Nutmeg & pepper.

Anonidium & Duguetia are generally sweet...however some I have tasted are not great, but then some are...over rippened fruit I have found to be rather sweet. It actually depends on the luck of the draw.

Hi,
the diospyros look like Diospyros kamerunensis (bong-afoum).

Thanks Bud.....you are probably right.

After about a dozen emails back and forth and a lot of discussion the order came to naught. I think the main problem is that the person handling the orders is not in Cameroon, but a middle man.

Oscar inrelation to the above quotation....this issue has nothing to do with me being the middle man...my role is simply to take the orders decipher them before sending them through (many amendments cause confusion), IDing species and accept payment.

How an order coming through to a so called middle man is of such a concern to you when the 55 other customers have had no problem...JUST YOU.
Besides this is the way we are operating, I do not tell you how to operate your business so please reframe from placing negativity.

I was only talking about my own experience, and only because Treesnmore asked. I didn't make any recommendations to you, or anybody else. Anyway i wish you and the folks in Cameroon good luck.

I am setting up an order with them, and with this list of seeds, I am ultra excited. Some of them there is but a single document on the web about the species. Thanks so much, Troy, if you are still on this forum!

My experience has been more like Oscar's so far.  I sent them my permit & labels several months ago & they claim it has not arrived yet.  They have some very interesting stuff & I am still interested in ordering but I am not feeling optimistic about them.  Glad to hear that some have perhaps had good experience with them.

Thanks hifarm, I guess I am looking into a friend in Ghana to get me the stuff before the gold rush destroy all the rare fruit plant habitat.

I have not received seeds directly from Troy, but he is a great- and definitely honest guy; so I would surely deal with him. And seeds from our mutual friend in Cameron has been okay - there was problems with seeds from one lot, but he resent to compensate.!
