Thanks!

Please, do it Oscar.

I have two surviving seedlings. One is 2,20 m tall in a pot. Must be close to fruit.

The other seedling was in a communitary pot, together with 3 sisters and don´t grew as expected.

Mine are only 1.5 m tall and already flowering. The flowers are small white flowers, but pretty. Will post when i finish fueling my generator, filling up water bottles, and refueling all my machinery, packing my essential things, in case i need to make a rapid exit.

i also got a plant (via Oscar) that is flowering now... really cool looking flowers.. the bush is only perhaps 5 feet tall. can one bush produce fruit by itself? i only have one plant.

ajeshcool47 · « **Reply #62 on:** May 14, 2018, 11:18:58 AM »

in my experience one plant is enough to set fruit..

I hope the bees did their job and this Bush makes some
Fruit

My first flowers did not set fruit.

Finally got fruit. The fruits are very attractive, and have nice sweet/sour balance. Main problem is seed is big, so not too much to eat. The fruit is about size of strawberry guava, but seed in center is about the size and shape of a cherimoya seed. Has lots of medicinal properties, and properly more valuable for that.

The fruits ripen a lot faster than you might expect, so keep a close eye on them, they turn red almost over night.
