For trade: 'Then Varikka' Jackfruit seedlings from India
« on: September 12, 2013, 09:41:41 PM »
I was fortunate enough to get 'Then Varikka' seeds from both Roy-Ind and Vipinrl and almost all have sprouted.  I have way more than I require and am willing to trade them for other seedlings that I don't have.  Then Varikka is supposedly crunchy and delicious.  These are growing VERY rapidly.  I will try to post some pics tomorrow or the day after.  I think I have 8 or 9 to trade.

So "honey varikka," then. No clue what varrika means, but thane means honey. Good name.

"Then Varikka Chakka" is translated as "Honey-Firm fleshed-Jack".

I was told that this variety is a 'red' jack fruit.

I have been corrected.

Great response thus far.  For those who took the first wave, they will be mailed out on Monday.  I still have 5 left for who ever is interested.
