« on: January 05, 2015, 06:39:01 PM »
Hi there

I'd love to get some nice Citrus and some other seeds, as most Citrus apart from Key lime, Persian lime, Shaddok, mandarins, sour and sweet orange are not available here.

Looking for:

Dekopon, Mandelo (Cocktail Grapefruit), Lemonade Tree, Rangpur lime, cultivars of Kumquat, Wampee Clausena lansium, edible Calamondin, African Pomelo, Honey Pomelo, Ugli, cultivars of Lemons, Red Navel and Cape gooseberry Physalis peruviana.

Am living in the Dominican Republic and have a shipping address in Florida too.
A not willing to spend a fortune, but am willing to swap or send a few Dollars for shipping costs etc.

Offering for a swap or for some bucks, seeds of:

Annona sp. (indet. we have 17 species here)
Bromelia pinguin
Coccoloba uvifera
Melicoccus bijugatus
Syzygium malaccense
And all the regular tropical stuff:
Annona muricata
Casimiroa sp.
Malphigia glabra
Manilkara zapota
Mangifera indica
Passiflora edulis flavicarpa
Passiflora e. edulis x flavicarpa
Passiflora quadrangularis
Persea avocado
Pouteria sapota
Solanum betaceum
Solanum quitoense
Spondias dulcis

Peppers:
Jalapeño (Capsicum annuum var. annuum), this Jalapeño cultivar has a hot taste and 2,500–10,000 Scoville units. Plants are shortlived annuals.
Habanero (Capsicum chinense), very hot cultivar, rated 100,000–350,000 on the Scoville scale. Plants are small shrubs and can get several years old
Ají moron (Capsicum frutescens). Wild species with small hot fruit. Plants can grow to a hight of 3 meters and get several years old
Ají montesino (Capsicum annuum var. aviculare). Wild species with tiny round and very hot fruit. Plants are small shrubs (2m) and will get several years old.
Ají dulce (Capsicum chinense), a mild cultivar. Plants are small shrubs and can get several years old

Am going on a mountaintrip in the next few days - so don't worry there will be an answer.

Thanks Martin

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Bromelia cf. pinguin
« on: November 17, 2014, 09:05:44 PM »
Hi there

found some fruit on the market here in Santo Domingo (Dominican Republic) and i think they might be Bromelia pinguin. Fruits are easy to peel - crunchy like a cucumber, aromatic and acidic with hints of green appel, banana and ananas. Ate two of them and found the acid somewhat pungent.
They might make a nice fruit punch ...

Is anybody familiar with that fruit and therefore able to confirm/refute my preliminary ID?
