Russell Sweet Garcinia

[Chandramohan]

Any one selling Russell's Sweet Garcinia Seeds?

Id suggest your only chance (its slim) is mikeT. He doesn't sell but may trade if you have something good. I think there are others with seedlings but it will be a while before they have seeds.

Thank you druss.

I am struggling to get seeds this season.I know the original trees were loaded with fruit last week but getting them is a drama.My 3 white whales D.macrantha,giant Fiji longan and the russells sweet garcinia seem to be more elusive than ever.

Anyone have examples of this Garcinia doing well in SoCA or similar climate?  Legend has it that some have successfully grown dulces here and there is some similarity between the two, maybe?
I procured 5 seeds from Mick Mick last year and 4 finally germinated after nearly 6 months on incubation.  I can keep them in a greenhouse but would love to put them in a protected area outside several years down the road. 
Considering this is experimental, I might trade a couple away to a local to see how they do under experienced care.

I have ate fruit from garcinia (I believe one or both was dulces) in orange county from two different sources, one of them being the fullerton arboretum, for the backyard grower one though the owner said last year was the first time he got to taste the fruit (took 20 years), so maybe better to try some grafted garcinias instead lol
