Tropical Fruit Discussion / Yangmei Help
« on: January 09, 2023, 01:49:15 AM »
Hi everyone,
                      I have watched the previous yangmei orders with interest and been impressed by their success. I'm in Australia, and have looked into bringing them in here. It appears doable, although with a holding period for the plants. I'm keen to try and arrange something similar, but cannot find any info on the nursery willing to ship out of china. I've messaged a couple of people to no avail. So I'm putting it out there, if anyone could point me in the direction of the supplier so I could contact them and see if its a real possibility I'd be really grateful.

I got 5 seeds of a supposedly white eugenia uniflora a while back from Vitor (wish i could contact him). Only one survived but appears I got lucky. Fruit are crisp with good flavour, a little small and slightly piney but not unpleasantly so.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Paclobutrazol
« on: June 14, 2019, 12:48:40 AM »
I was reading an article about a Japanese researcher using this
 Paclobutrazol in Japan to restrict the size of avocados. I also spoke to a former mango farmer from the nt who had seen something like this trialled. Im wondering if it could be used to restrict the size of Durians so they could be grown in a hothouse.

I'd be keen to hear what types of fertilizers people use on their trees, the amount and npk ratios, plus extra trace elements if applied. It might be a help to members to have it all in one thread.
