Ricardo is one of only a handful of seed suppliers that I trust.  Even with the very long transit time, never had issues with germination. 

Wouldn't hesitate to order from him at all. 

Thanks Adam - my friend loved the fruits.   

Please put me down for more... a big box or two standard - whatever's best.   

3.9 pounds Adam.  Personally I've never seen a fruit so large.  Its a mature tree (over 8m tall) with all lower branches pruned off a long time ago, so fruits were high up in the canopy.  No special care at all.  Last year's crop was more abundant, but this year size seems to make up for lack of numbers. 

If you ship to Iowa, please add me to the list. 

Thanks.

Thank you Adam.

These were repotted into what I think to be the best quality acidic mix about a month back from the original seed raising mix.  Will they be able to handle another repot?    I'm not the most experienced gardener so am scared of losing them.

hi Louis

was it the lemonade tree?

congratulations Gwenn! How very exciting!

Congratulations Coconut!! Another one for my ever extending list.   

Congratulations Jacob!! How very exciting - hope it will be my turn next. 

I think its very brave to prune jaboticabas.  I've contemplated pruning some of mine, but can't bring myself to do it!  They're too precious to me and every leaf is cherished at the moment. 

I greatly appreciate the list Mike.  The hunt is definitely on.

Of the jaboticabas, I only have vexator, red hybrid, trunciflora, spirito santensis, and coronata.  And here I thought aureana would complete that collection?!

Eugenias and Campomanesia are unfamiliar territories, so lots of googling when time permits.

Haven't done too badly with Garcinias - I've got small seedlings or seeds awaiting germination of all excepting acuminata and gardneriana. 

Russell - sorry to hear about your most unfortunate accident.  At least some good came out of it 
Being in Cairns you're already at an advantage to me - you'll no doubt have better access to things I can only dream about surely?

I too can vouch for Oscar's seeds - one batch of 10 seeds gave me 12 seedlings!! 

I'm sure there should be some, since most members are of ethnic background with their own pungent food fares and since everyone likes all these exotic fruits, they should definitely give it a try if they haven't. Try a or two of clove of raw garlic smash with the chilies and fish sauce...........yum mouth watering just thinking about it

Kimi.......since you like fish sauce, have you try green papaya salad? I just love that dish....super stinking, but O so good in my tummy...though too spicy and it can cause some stomach discomfort too

Oh and not only is smash chilies+fish and garlic are only good to use as a dipping for hard crunchy fruits, they are good with any kind of grilled/bbq meats/seafood as well.

You too??!?! lol  the chilies, fish sauce, and garlic combo is a must have with steamed beans for me... have never tried it with fruits though...

fish sauce, ginger and chilies for seafood is to die for!! lol

papaya salad is the best!!

its a treat alright.    Salt with fresh birds eye chilies mashed in is a great dip for rock hard fruits (nectarines, peaches, apples, pears, guavas, etc....) - wonder if other forum members will be game enough to try the fish sauce dip?
