FINALLY!!! 8) ;D

We are now allowed to ship plants worldwide! The shipping costs have been updated, so everyone can order plants as well.

Hi,
What is the source of the tropical seeds?
Because many seeds have very short germination (under 2 weeks) and would be impossible to store long.
For example Inga and some Artocarpus.

Hi!
The seeds come from several places. The ones we got today, the Theobroma and others available right now, came from Suriname and have been in transit for 2 days.
As the seeds are still in the fruits, they can be kept viable for a longer period.
When sent out from our storage, we pack them in humid moss to prevent them from drying out.
Even the most shortly viable seeds arrive healthy this way. Some seeds will have started to germinate already before shipping or will do in transit.

We don’t have Inga edulis and artocarpus seeds anymore right now. We expect to get some soon from Borneo and India. Seeds that we don’t have right now, can be ordered already. This allows us to ship the seeds as fresh as possible. Sometimes it can take a while however before we receive the desired species. Customers will be kept up to date on the status of their ordered seeds during this time.

Fruits arrived yesterday in good condition. First ones have been shipped out, but we still have this bunch left ;D



A few of the bicolor fruits are not ripe yet, and seed quality will probably not be as good as of the ones that we send to our customers. Therefore, we will use these seeds ourselves to see if we can manage to grow some plants out of them.

We unexpectedly got some Rhambutan as well. We will try to post them on our site in a few hours. If you’re interested and don’t want to miss out on them, you can send us a PM.
