The giant purple starapples have smaller seeds than normal sized. The other interesting thing is that most of these giants only have 3 seeds inside. (Normal sized fruit usually have 6-8 seeds.) Maybe i will name them after you, just because you make me laugh! The only type of cigarettes i smoke are those candy types made for kids. HAHA

Could you please comment on ultimate tree size of your giant purple starapple strain?  What planting distance would you recommend? Thank you!

They are standard size, which means the trees get pretty large. Mine are about 40 feet tall, but they should have been pruned much shorter to keep fruits at reachable level. I suggest minimum planting distance 25 feet. You could plant a bit closer if you plan to regularly prune the trees.

The Mexican garcinia seeds are only available in March-April. Good news is that i have plenty of seedling plants about 6-8 inches tall for sale. They are $25 each plus s&h.

hey Oscar. 

Sorry, haven't had a chance to place my order for the other seeds, but the other day noticed you put on for sale Raimondia conica.  I tried to search the forum, but couldn't find any comments/insight on taste, growth habit, growing conditions etc.  Can you comment on your experience and opinion of its taste?

Mahalo!

Best to pre-order a couple months ahead of the season because i have a waiting list. The sooner you order the higher up on the waiting list.

Hi,

I have this species, I collected it in the Amazon last year, is this the  sapote de mico?

In the region, they are said to be a variety of Pouetria Torta.

It is delicious, very good flavor.

Obs: I am not offering the seeds for sale, I just want to confirm if it is the same fruit asked and named after Pouteria Torta Galifructa.
