Wanted: Vasconcellea/Carica monoica
« on: September 17, 2017, 11:00:52 AM »
Hello,
I'm looking for some seeds or plant of Vasconcellea monoica - wild mountain papaya. Or maybe someone knows where to get one? preferable from Europe since customs can often be a problem.

Hi,
i am looking for fresh seeds as well. Unfortunately most of the seeds I got the didn't germinate around 300 seeds from 3 different vendors. If they are order than a month they take a lot of time to germinate.
Mountain papaya/ chamburo is Vaconcellea pubescens.

Try https://www.tradewindsfruit.com/ they have some now and so do https://www.rarepalmseeds.com/fruit_trees.shtml they have theirs listed under carica.

Had decent luck with both companies.

Best of luck!
