Keepin my “Ultra Tropicals” safe!

[WilliamTheYoungGrower]

So recently we got hit by two consecutive category 4 hurricanes here in Honduras, as soon as the almost 90 mile per hour winds started hitting i knew i had to put some of my ultra tropical seedlings on a safer place. Since ive imported most of these guys i didnt want to run any risks. The seedlings pictured are: 2 Macadamias, 1 Cambuca, 1 Rollinia, 1 Kepel Burahol, 1 Marang, 1 Mamey sapote, 1 Yellow Jaboticaba, and 1 Excalibur sapodilla. The Kepel and the Marang are the most recent additions to my collection, any help on growing these 2 would be amazing, such as sun exposure and how much water they like. Thanks for stopping by👊

Regards,William

Those arent ultra tropicals.

Marang and Kepel are equatorial  which I believe is more clearly defined than utra tropical which I guess may be 10 latitude or so to the equator. Warm temperate and sub tropical area bit hazy as well. Most ohers listed are tropical/sub tropical.
Kepel handle wind better than marangs wish almost shatter is strong wind with their sail like leaves.Both can bounce back from much higher wind speeds than that all the same. The rest just need a bit of controlled pruning and flexible trees actually do ok as well.

Its a shame you dont want help but i stead want your moronic nature to come through.  I was TRYING to inform you, but hell, you obviously know better (NOT!).  No ultratropicals here, wrong climate...you silly child

This doesn’t seem like much “help”, but I would consider MikeT’s response helpful, and the young grower thanked him appropriately. Bully you trippin.

Young Grower, good luck on your nice collection!

Sorry, just being real.  I dont need to coddle people, especially the people here.  Most dont want help, they are ignorant know-it-alls that unfortunately know nothing.

Zone pushing and ultra tropicals are different

Zone pushing and ultra tropicals are different

Zone pushing is growing plants in climates colder than they are comfortable in. Ultra tropicals are plants that are very sensitive to cold.
To the OP...my marangs didn't like full sun. BUT this may differ since we live in different climates.
