These are from the two seedlings of unknown variety I have, fruiting for the first time this year.  Could you help identify them? 

My wish list,  of which the only one I have now is Lychee

1. Durian
2. Lychee
3. Mangosteen
4. Sugar Apple
5. Jackfruit

Cherimoya. Even if you prefer atemoya, having cherimoya will extend your fruit season.

Sugar apple. Get a chewy one if you like.

Loquat. Has small fruits now and ripens around April, before all the stone fruits and after the mandarins.

Lemon. According to the lemon snobs:) in the citrus subforum, any meyer lemon should go to the chipper and replaced with a real one.

Pomegranate if you're not right by the coast.

White sapote. 'suebelle' is pretty low maintanence. Others are better but may need pruning to keep small.

Banana?

Ok, so I forgot to list a few things .  I do have one potted and one in-ground Cherimoya,  both 3 - 4yo seedings that have yet fruited (hopefully this year).  My hope is to have two cocktail Cherimoya trees,  unfortunately I never have a chance to learn/come around to grafting.  I also have two young bananas.  My neighbor has a Pomegran
ate that he gives me owner rights to all the fruits lol.

I'm thinking about adding another Mango and maybe another Sapodilla or just a boring but useful Orange tree?  I love Jackfruit too,  but am afraid it is going to get too big for the spot (a 8-10ft radius from the neighboring trees). 

As far as I know while hand pollinate may help improving the fruit count,  a Sapodilla tree should be able to fruit on its own. 

I'm happy the report that patience does payoff.  My Hasya is bearing fruit this year for the first time (since being planted in 2012) 😊

First...  you have to figure out if YOU planted the cutting upside down.  If not them don't worry, they are only aerial roots.

How do you tell??  the cutting looks exactly the same downside up or upside down *confused*

My tree is a healthy, happy little tree!  It grows very fast and doesn't look to have any kind of deficiencies.  However, to be safe, how do I know when a tree/plant is having issues with soil or nutrient imbalances?

Also, how do I find out if there are other fruiting sapodilla in my area?  I live about 15 minutes from the heart of Little Saigon, so I would assume that there are many sapodilla trees being planted around  .

I have a 3 yr old Hasya Sapodilla that bears ton of flowers but so far, no fruits.   I wonder if I'd have to do anything to help it along, or perhaps it's just a bit too young to bear fruit?

Weren't you guys supposed to meet up at Behl's place last year as a group for grafting demonstration & brainstorming that ended up at your place with a few members short due to family ER?

Darn got that tree wrong, looks awfully close to a ficus sp. Especially the way the light shines off the leaves. Its kind of funny how much you can get from the picture if your familiar with the area and how pictures taken there should look. I hope I did not screw up your anonymous location to much lol.

Congrats on future dragon fruits .

Yeah, I think your right, Tim. I totally forgot associating the screen name with that. Not sure if any of the grafts took during that get together, but it was fun anyway. Fang was really informative and a very nice and patient person.

Ahh.. now I remember that event, too!  My mother-in-law passed away right around that weekend so I couldn't host the meeting at my house.  I wonder how that meeting and all the grafts went, as I never saw any pictures or any posts about them afterward.

What a beautiful sight to behold

Congrats what variety? Also from the picture it looks like its grown in SoCal?

I don't know what variety it is.  All I know is that it has white flesh & the fruits are very big.  I also have the purple and red flesh ones, but their fruits are smaller .  BTW, how on earth can you tell that it's grown in SoCal just by looking at the pic? (you're right, though)

Just curious, how many years does it take for a Jackfruit tree to fruit from seed?
