Been putting in an orchard at my new home in northern San Diego county. Would like to grow Canistel, Lucuma, and green sapote. Need suggestions on cultivars and suggestions on nurseries that might have those cultivars. Ross sapote also on list if it does well in this climate.
Found a very nice Bruce canistel at a local nursery. Will be in the ground by this weekend. Has been raised outdoor in a 15 gallon very near my property and has flowers. Will keep my eyes open for other canistel varieties, Ross and green Sapote. Ended up getting an Oscar mulberry and a couple of nice papaya trees at the same place. Only Lucuma I can find are young seedlings.
Nice. Hope mine will set fruit in future years after it settles in. Has flowers now but doubt it will set fruit since it was just planted.
