Getting back to you guys in pm

2
Hello, I had successful shipments to Florida, and also confiscations. I got feedback of lost seeds in less than 10 percent. As my knowledge goes it is not feasable to leagally send Thebroma seeds to The US.
That being said I can send seeds if you understand the risks.

Note: 2nd of September is the last day I send seeds from CR before traveling and only cupuassu is available now.

3
Will it also do okay in subtropical climates?
I didn’t find any info on that.

Availability update:
The cupuassu season started strong and therr are not many fruits on the teees so this will be a short one.
If you plan to get some seeds, do it now

http://seedpirates.org/fruits/theobroma-angustifolium/emerald-cacao

T. angustifolium (Emerald Cacao)
Besides T. cacao and T. Bicolor, this is the third species of Theobroma historically used to make chocolate. The pulp is edible with a slight sweet taste similar to cupuassu but less sour and a bit more like apple.
The fruits rot on the tree unless picked manually. To tell if it is ripe one needs to smell the fruit to observe the slight sweet apple smell.
The 2 cm diameter flowers are yellow. The beans are slightly larger then cacao beans.

5 seeds for 15 USD


Theobroma grandiflorum, Cupuassu

Cupuassu:
Possibly the most famous and most liked wild Cacao. The fluffy flesh of the pods are sweet when you put them in your mouth and as you get closer to the seeds they become sour and very intense with a distinct taste I cannot compare to anything else. We love to put them in smoothie with Coconut water and Sugarcane juice, the ultimate refreshment that’s also filling, satisfying and super nutritious. In Brazil the native people highly valued this fruit. The juice of the pulp was a traditional drink for pregnant and breastfeeding women.

This Cempejack from Costa Rica is the juiciest softest and lightest we came accross so far. The fruits ripen to perfection on the heavy producing tree, just need to cut them when they are soft. It is sweet and tastes more like Jackfruit than Cempedak: bubblegum and flowers.

Colombian Sapote:
Our favorite American fruit: sweet, juicy and satisfying. It is a juicy honey-pumpkin mix with a smooth feeling in the mouth like a milkshake. The flesh and fibers remind to mango while the taste is sweet with no tart tones. When its season we eat this fruit as a whole meal, about 5-8 fruits per person. The fruits usually weigh 3-500 grams.

I am very hapy for the seeds, thanks for the feedback.
Happy growing

Thanks for this feedback, I will def forward it to D.

My seeds also arrived from him after two months of travel and 80% survived and he used the same packaging to all of us. My guess is that the seeds died from something like heat and what you see could bee the moisture from the seeds plus the moisture he added.

Sweet. Almost as good as mangosteen.
