Just make a big U around FL.
I'll generally hit Orlando for jabos, head down to WPB and get more trees, mangos, and see friends, then go down to Homestead and hit more fruits, nurseries, F and S park, cut across the Everglades, Naples for more trees (can hit Pine Island also) then Tampa for food!
By the time I'm done it's a success.
There's Grimal Grove down in the Keys.
DM and Hipasfolk,
Spray with a micronutrient mix. Be sure it contains at least 0.25% Zinc.
If that mix doesn't contain Copper, spray a Copper fungicide. Follow label requirements.
My plant is very healthy looking, very busy, but only about 15" tall in a 3 gallon pot. At least it came with one ripe fruit on the tree so I get to taste my first fruit.
I will get my sour things in an row and try them all after eating the one berry, I hear the miracle taste only last about 30 minutes after eating the fruit.
Too bad I don't have any ripe macrophylla fruits now, only lemons and limes. Any other suggestions for fruits to try with this?
Freeze this thread!!!!!
@puglvr1: Have you seen ants on your persimmon trees? If you do, check to see if your tree has scale - they looked brownish on my tree and I found them accidentally by running my fingers on the branches.These pests must have sucked the life out of my tree.
I really like the nofloat cypress mulch from home depot, its the only mulch I've tried out of 3-4 that really will stay in place after a storm and is great at hosting mycelium.
My lemon tree seemed to like it a lot before winter storms turned it into a trifoliate orange tree, wish I had a report to give on fruiting RIP
What's a reliable source for the Hawaiian sunset papaya? I like them, but didn't bother growing because store bought was fine and easier. However this year the papaya in stores were terrible, so I want to grow some.
Not a tropical or an exotic, but you have to grow one of the best fruits of all--persimmon! Grow several varieties--astringent and non-astringent.
The first link screwed up, i think the second should work fine....
Montgomery was really impressive, and my Palm knowledge is minimal.
Had a great tour with a Palm explorer that had been all over looking for rare palms.
The mango station in Coral Gables should open up during mango season for tours as well.
Help with funding or something.
Did you add potting soil or compost to the planting hole?
