The Tropical Fruit Forum

I use peat and pine fines in my blueberry bed and feed it pine thereafter

Other mangosteen types work better in Florida

Auchacharu, Lucs garcinia, Imbe and Lemondrop mangosteen will grow up here

I plant first and if I come up with something better than the old i move it to make room for the new

A grumachama and jaboticaba are great landscape trees in addition of fruit

Getting mixed bloom on Phoenix, ppk and Fairchild

Bigger than first bloom on ppk

Thanks for the info sounds like a cool trip

Not a problem

This is from kona seed bought at trade winds

And I cut it back once a year

Just bloomed and about to make cherries

Edible cherries are slightly sweet but not much to them but two seeds which are the beans

But easiest way to clean them is eat the cherry

Only had one fruit last year and it was wonderful


A mixture of sweet and sour but refined unlike the sweet tart that jolts you

I let it go without sprays to check it’s PM resistance this season

It has none and will lose all its fruit if left unchecked

Even with the loss of some crop and the fruit are blemished it set more than expected

Phoenix has problems

Honey Kiss next door clean

A poly seed has multiple plants

So all of them will have a match

Try the search engine out on google and Explanation is there

Everything you are asking is answered there

Cotton Candy has been the cleanest in my yard

Powdery Mildew conditions at my place for over a month but none on the Candy


On the other hand Phoenix would have lost entire crop without sulfur spray

I also have a bearss lemon

We purchased two at the Manatee fruit tree sale and found we got two different rootstocks which changed fruiting season so going back and getting two more this year to extend our seasons
