Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Re: Akebia Fruit (chocolate vine)
« on: August 13, 2023, 12:51:30 PM »
My Akebia trifoliata is fruiting heavily this year. They won't be ripe until early September, but I'd be happy to mail you one or two. I'm in Washington State.

Temperate Fruit Buy, Sell, & Trade / Re: WTB Chilean guava cuttings
« on: May 23, 2023, 10:15:50 PM »
Looking to buy some cuttings of Ugni molinea, the Chilean guava or guavaberry. If possible, not the variegated selection.

I'd be happy to sell you cuttings, or even better plants!

I'd be interested. I'm under the impression they're easy to graft, hard to strike.

Matt from Wanderlust Nursery here! We have plants in stock, they're just still dormant. Our clone of Zanthoxylum simulans is self fertile and has a good flavor. They are cutting grown.

We have carried Zanthoxylum piperitum and Zanthoxylum planispinum in the past. Zanthoxylum planispinum has a great flavor and is evergreen, so that"s neat.

Looking for Sansho and Sechuan Pepper plants (M and F). Open to trading or purchasing.

One World usually has them.
https://onegreenworld.com/product-category/herbs-spices-teas/peppercorn-plants/
https://www.tradewindsfruit.com/search.php?search_query=zanthoxylum

I don't have experience with them, but there are also:
https://wanderlustnursery.com/shop/products/p/sichuan-pepper
https://northwoodsnursery.com/category/863/

If you are interested with NA natives that likely can pollinate szechuan/sansho pepper:
https://www.possibilityplace.com/our-plants/zanthoxylum-americanum
https://redbudnative.com/

I got my americanum from Redbud. They don't list it in the catalog, but I wouldn't be surprised if they can get one.

In a pinch, I can mail you some of my babies. (Likely clonal shoots) May have to wait for spring, though.

Citrus Buy, Sell, & Trade / Re: Wanted: Desert lime (Citrus glauca) seeds

I can't help with the pure species, but I do have some hybrid plants. I have the hybrid with Meyer Lemon sometimes called 'Razzlequat' as well as another hybrid involving a sour mandarin. I can only offer cuttings, not seeds.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: myrceugenia glaucescens info?
« on: December 05, 2022, 09:58:42 PM »
I wasn’t familiar with Myrceugenias until recently. I’ve heard it’s closely related to Luma Apiculata which I’ve been eating different varieties this season. I visited Wanderlust nursery and found he had some Myrceugenias in his collection and I had no idea they were hardy enough for Washington. Is myrceugenia glaucescens hardy enough to CA zone 9b? I had them in my greenhouse but it would be great if I could leave them outside. Also any info on fruit would be great

Matt from Wanderlust Nursery here! Many Myrceugenia species are very cold hardy, other's not as much. I primarily grow (in zone 8b) the Chilean and Argentinian species like M. ovata, M. exsucca, M. parviflora, and M. leptospermoides. I'm trying to establish M. planipes and M. lanceolata. The species from Brazil/ Paraguay/ Uruguay are probably not AS cold hardy, but should be fine in zone 9b.

If you're looking for other hardy South American Myrtaceae that are less common, consider Myrcianthes, Blepharocalyx, and Amomyrtus. Amomyrtus meli berries are small, but sweet and incredibly aromatic, similar to bay rum. That Myrceugenia glaucescens looks really interesting, I'll have to try it!

I have plenty of fresh Inga vera seeds right now. PM me!

I now carry plants with my nursery that are a self fruitful female clone. It's likely the same clone that One Green World carries. I will also have seeds available in July when the fruit is in season.

Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Re: WTB -Campomanesia xanthocarpa plant
« on: September 13, 2021, 01:08:47 AM »
I'll have a few soon. Anything rare to trade?

I'm open to trading for a Campomanesia plant! I've got plenty of odds and ends, I believe you had already reached out about a few (Wanderlust Nursery).

Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / WTB Davidson's Plum Seeds or Plants
« on: September 13, 2021, 01:06:10 AM »
I'm in search of Davidsonia seeds or plants with shipping within or to the United States. I'm happy to pay or trade! Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

12
I have fresh Myreceria vexator (Blue Grape) seeds to sell or trade. I'm asking 2$ per seed plus $8 shipping. Also willing to trade. If you have desirable fig cuttings or plan to have some this winter let me know.

USA only, don't really know how to ship across international waters and I was just burned by customs with my custard apple seeds.

Thanks!

Any particular fig varieties you're looking for? I have quite a few varieties (and mailable plants!). To name a few, I have Brown Turkey, Desert King, Olympia, Violette de Bordeaux, Mare de deux, Texas Everbearing, Kadota, Olympia, Ficus palmata, Ficus virens, Ficus palmata x carica,  Ficus sycomorus, Ficus johannis ssp. Afghanistanica and some mysterious vietnamese species...

I carry plants at my nursery. They're not listed now, but I have 4inch pots rooting in of a self fruitful female selection. Feel free to PM!

Hi Acoalwell,

I'm glad the seeds showed up safe and sound. I have plenty of Jim Gerdemann Chilean Guava seeds, no one ever asks for them! Let me know if you want some, happy to send pics of the plant and fruit. I may also have seeds of 'Villarica Strawberry' and 'Flambeau', but if I do it's not very many.

Thanks Acoalwell, you probably have received your seeds by now. Let us know if you have any questions; your seeds were cleaned from fresh fruit this month and should germinate relatively quickly. Just in case you were curious, the seeds you've received are a white/pink skinned fruit selection that's an early season selection. Unfortunately, the name of the cultivar is long lost, but the leaves are more willow shaped as opposed to our selection 'Jim Gerdemann', which has very round leaves and bright red, late season fruit.

Matt- I did order some of the seeds from the website. Very excited!

Hello Matt! Seeds just arrived today and I've planted them. Thank you again, and please let me know if the Jim Gerdmann variety becomes available, I would love to buy some of those seeds too!

15
I've got plenty of fresh seeds available now if you're still looking. I'm asking $5 for 10 fresh, never dried seeds, free shipping in the US.

Looking to buy now for next years rootstock! Let me know if anyone has any.

Thanks D-Grower! We appreciate the kind words. Unfortunately, you're right on communication; we do have a hard time keeping up with messages at times. Correspondence by email or phone is by far the easiest way to get a hold of us and we're committed to responding to emails at info@wanderlustnursery.com within 24 hours. We simply have a terrible time keeping up with messages on TFF, PalmTalk, and other forums as well as Facebook, email, and phone. Call us old fashioned!

Since wanderlust nursery is mentioned in this thread just wanted to do a shout out to them. I ordered from them a while ago and the plants were absolutely beautiful. Highly recommend them. Only issue I had was communication. They do reply sometimes but in many cases didn't quickly or at all. Realize they are likely busy people so no real worries. Otherwise fantastic experience with them.

18
Thanks Francis_Eric, I appreciate that! I've gone ahead and added Chilean Bellflower to our website, they're now available in 4 inch pots. I wouldn't recommend eating the seeds in my experience, but I'm sure they're not toxic. The fruit is supposedly quite good, although I haven't tried it myself.

Thanks for the shoutout D-Grower!  If anyone's curious about the nursery, the website is www.wanderlustnursery.com.  We'll be adding all sorts of few new offerings in March, so check us out.  In addition to what I've seen posted here so far, here are some other fun plants we grow in zone 8b:

Carpathian is another name for the English walnut right? Want to be sure but seems so. Definitely would be interested in butternut too especially if they mature quickly and are of better edibility. The big walnut is totally awesome and I'd surly love to get my hands on that! If anyone can ID pay something pretty decent for some seeds. Either way would buy seeds or seedlings of the Carpathian or butternut too if anyone has them that sees this.

Kaki persimmons would be cool. Totally would buy some seeds of that. Already have a handful of native American persimmons going and had got seeds of Texas persimmons a bit ago that are currently stratifying in my refrigerator now.

Got loquat covered already here. Ate many as a child from neighborhood trees so definitely had to grow it. My largest tree is mature and has smallish fruits but decent flavor. Gonna attempt grafting Big Jim on a few branches right before spring from a member here when the time comes. Wouldn't mind putting Christmas on there too.

Chilean guava is on the radar for sure. Had gotten seeds from a member on here from Germany last year and had several sprouts but the darned chickens ruined that... Another member here has plants and I'll buy one or two here soon for sure as well as some other awesome stuff he has. Wanderlust nursery is his company. If you see this great selection man!

Got plums and cherries covered. Wild forms but will graft on later some good types. Don't mind wild stuff at all though. My palate is not picky and I want production at all above quality in my view of things.

Definitely want almonds, peaches, apricot, etc too. Had many nice seedling peaches going but deer grazed them so much they eventually died due to the reoccurring damage. I'll protect better next time.

Thanks for your reply!

Nice Nursery
I didn't see the Lapageria rosea ( Chilean bellflower or copihue) on the Nursery site
Is it true you can eat the seeds cooked as well or is it just fruits not having much luck online.


D grower You said hops you can make a bitter tea with them as well
(with layers of different flavors in each glass boiling water with the same hops over, & over again)
I have to say Humulus  lupulus var. Neomexicanus 
It is by the western states more , but your more humid I think
(your not to far from Louisiana As I remember)
I think these might not be as bad in the heat though just guessing ,(see below)

Soraschi Ace hop

 is a "PART "Japanese breed hop that prevents Powdery Mildew downy mildew
although beware pure Japanese hops are not recommended
(if they are male with female as they can become invasive)

(copied from here )
http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=1&taxon_id=200006377



I really wasn't going to post until later as I have so many more Just kept getting drawn to this post today.


Look into the natives as well In the Tea family Stewartia ovata (NC) S. malacodendron
 Gordonia lasianthus
&(we have Franklinia )

You may not even drink tea , but the flowers are nice looking

https://plants.ces.ncsu.edu/plants/x-gordlinia-grandiflora/

How much land you got Some tiny may apples may look nice (Podophyllum) to protect from animals
you also have a native type , but I looked it doesn't look edible like ours is
Spotty Dotty is a Chinese Hybrid with spotted leaves these do well under a forest , and taste lemon like.
(I may have seeds)

In another post I brought up hullless Pumpkin seeds to roast no hard outer coating (I do not mind that actually)
Vitis Shuttleworthii is a native grape in florida
with these acidic Grapes you can dilute with water, and make juice with sugar added.
speaking of  which
I saw rhubarb growing in New orleans in a raised garden bed
 maybe it could grow there or refrigerate the rhizome .

I may have some seeds of some stuff do you grow Ginkgo (I have a few seeds)
mortum arboretum has a grey leaf looking cultivar
(I like those cultivars that grow all knobby

Dwarf Japanese Maple (mikawa yatsubusa)
that can be trained to look weird as well

Tulip tree is okay in zone 4 to 9 Liriodendron tulipifera

My computers not working right now very good , but I know of some weird cutivars
Varigated Ginkgo is pretty nice just get a normal one they grow so slow ,
 and the tea helps blood flow to the brain (, and helps with men's health I'm sure as well with woman)
be advised may not be good to take if you take aspirine everyday as some people do after stroke I've read..

As I forgot almost The hop people  I brought up
invasive species brewery fort lauderdale is trying to grow hops
(or see  Urban Farming Institute in Oakland Park)

I know that is a lot , but to grow hops in florida you may have to try some of these people
or that japanese breed type Soraschi Ace as I am sure powdery mildew might be bad down that way
you may have to strip the vines of the leaves like they do to grapes to make go dorment (or use Urea large scale)

Matt from Wanderlust Nursery here! We have tons of Chilean Guava plants available for sale right now, in one gallon pots. Some are even fruiting! If you're specifically looking for seeds, we're just getting some fruit to ripen now, so we can throw some up onto the website.

Wanderlust Nursery has Chilean Guava seeds listed but they're currently out of stock. One Green World lists named varieties, but no seeds.

Pitangatuba is common among collectors here. Someone should be able to help you with this one.

Achacha is uncommon. A local specialty fruit market in Houston, TX - Linda's Tropical Fruits - got a limited quantity shipment of the fruit (six bags of 2lbs or so) during the summer of 2019. I was lucky to get a hold of a bag, but regret not saving the seeds. No telling if they were viable or not. I know of someone else who found an international market carrying them in New England, but do not know the details. So know they make it stateside once in a blue moon if you can't get a hold of seeds or seedling from a collector.

Olosapo is rare to show up in trades. I'd like a seedling myself.

Hi directrepeat,

Any chance you have any more Diospyros texana seeds available? I collect rare Myrtales too, so I probably have something you'd be interested in.

Best,

Matt
