Title: Guyana's fruits seeds - Brazil nut, Inga cayennensis, Annona sericea, Myrcia sp.
Post by: Colombo973 on November 22, 2020, 03:25:51 PM

Hi everyone,

Here are the current Guiana's fruits seeds list with availability and prices.
This list is updated regularly according to trips in the forest.
For enquiries, please send me PM or e-mail (sometime i can take several days to reply, feel free to insist ;D )

I'm also selling other interesting seeds (medicinal, fruit or ornamental) on my ebay store : https://www.ebay.fr/usr/colombo40358 (https://www.ebay.fr/usr/colombo40358)
Price are bit higher due to ebay fees. Please contact me for special request.

I can ship by priority airmail (cheap, reliable but no tracking) or by registered (higher reliability and tracking). Both have same delivery time. No EMS or Express mail services.

I do my best to send ultra fresh seeds. As most of Guiana's seeds are recalcitrant, i use to extract, clean and pack seeds on same day i ship the packet, and it happens that i have to wait several days for fruit to ripe.
Please understand that i do not store the seeds, so don't expect me to send order on next day after payment done.

Important note : with current covid crisis, delivery time can be very delayed, up to 4-6 weeks for some countries with lockdown.
Seeds are sent packed with moist coco coir and can handle several weeks without any problems.

Pouteria macrophylla aka Taturuba (Sapotaceae) TOP DWARF VARIETY
It is a wild varitiety found.
The tree flower and fruit far earlier than regular P. macrophylla, but the most interesting trait it's his dwarfism.
Tree is only 3,5 meters tall and the place where the tree is was completely cleared 3 years ago.
Regular Taturuba start to fruit in 6-8 years when at least 8 meters tall, so this strain is very unusual.
Fruits are a bit smaller than the regular one, but single seeded and very aromatic, really delightful.
Limited quantity.
5 euros/seed Sold out

I can testify to seller’s seed freshness and good packaging. Despite 3 weeks in the mail Melicoccus and Garcinia germination was 80% plus.
