The Tropical Fruit Forum

Black Crimean figs. The first fruiting. The plant is two years old, growing in a pot.

Hi guys, I have a question. What is the shelf life of most tropical fruits for possible postage? For example, I want to get Jackfruit, the package to Russia is on the way for 14-16 days, will it rot during this time or will it be suitable for eating? Which tropical fruits have the longest shelf life?

Hi guys. I want to negotiate with someone next spring about buying cuttings. I am interested in different Annona, Artocarpus, Durio, Carambola, Sapota and much more. This should be sent to Russia, I take all the risks on myself and in case of confiscation of the parcel by customs, I will not make claims against you. Today in Russia these are very popular plant species, mostly people grow them in their greenhouses from seeds, because it is very difficult to find cuttings. I am ready to buy good volumes, if someone wants to do business, write to me in pm. Regards! 

Hi guys, I have been growing several trees in 8-gallon pots for more than three years, among them there are Canistel, Ackee,Carambola, Inga edulis. I am interested what is the best you can offer for grafted, and can someone sell me cuttings for grafted?

Today I discovered the buds on Vasconcellea quercifolia. Will there be something in the future or is it still too early? The plant is one year old.

Hi guys! Do any of you use Cloning Machines? Is this a functional device, or does it not deserve attention? Does someone have a diagram of how it is done inside or can provide photos of the mechanisms?

Hi guys, I was looking for forums specializing in the discussion of growing papaya and cocoa. I came across only some topics of the old years. Is it possible to find something like this, or is it only available on general forums on tropical plants? Best regards!

Hi guys. On March 11th I bought Seeds Del Mundo Theobroma Grandiflora Seeds, Theobroma cacao Big Fruit Pot, Myrciaria Vexator Whole Fruit and he sent them to me pretty quickly, but the package never left the Netherlands. I informed Seeds Del Mundo about this on April 12th, he told me to refund or resend. I agreed to re-send and they quickly did everything again. On April 23rd, I received the package and found that it contained something completely different and all the seeds were dead. After checking the invoice, I realized that the product was intended for another buyer. I informed Seeds Del Mundo about this, they offered compensation only for the item, no refund of shipping costs. I agreed and Seeds Del Mundo said that I had already returned the money. I checked my PayPal account and there is nothing there.  I again wrote a letter to Seeds Del Mundo but received no response. Today I was already angry, and therefore I opened a dispute on PayPal about the return of the full amount, including the amount of postal services. Am I doing the right thing?

Hi guys. In the fall, I bought seeds of Holboellia latifolia from tradewindsfruit, but none of them sprouted. I had not seen such a plant before, I only read some information on the Internet. Did someone grow it? How does it taste? Can it be grown as an annual plant or does it take a long time for the fruit? Maybe someone has young seedlings and I'm ready to buy from you.

Hi guys, I'm looking for different types of nut plants. It can be not only cold-resistant species. But also those that can be grown in a pot, for example macadamia. I am also very interested in various varieties of edible acorns.

Hi guys. I have Telfairia pedata seeds, I bought them on Ebay. Two of the three seeds planted successfully sprouted, and I do not need the remaining amount. I would like to exchange them if you have something for me. Macadamia, Cocoa, Duguetia and others that you can offer. Regards!
