I searched for these seeds for a long time and to no avail. I bought rarepalmseeds.com, but they were old and did not germinate. Someone can sell or know where to buy fresh seeds?

Temperate Fruit Discussion / Re: Grafting chestnut on oak
« on: January 11, 2021, 08:24:55 AM »
I heard that in Russia we had successful grafts of Chinese chestnut on Quercus robur. I cannot say this for sure because I myself have not seen it, but I came across this information many times,also heard that it is possible to graft xanthoceras on a horse chestnut, this variation is more interesting to me.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: any kadsura coccinea successfully planted ?
« on: November 21, 2020, 08:56:32 AM »Hello there. In China, it only takes 2 years from seed to fruit, to 3 years, most of the plants are monoecious. There are just a bunch on my own mountain, don't believe in the Internet, the information is wrong. If you need seeds, you can find me, and the shipping fee will do. Almost past seasonThanks for the info and your seed proposal. Personally, I have six plants today, so seeds are not needed. I think you can find a buyer on this forum.

« on: November 18, 2020, 07:42:31 AM »Has anyone tried sheffields.com?I have bought many different nut crops from these guys. It was always sent quickly and the seeds always have a high germination rate. This is just my personal experience with nuts. I cannot be sure for other types.

H2O2 works great with old passionfruit seeds, but not soaking, but germination in a solution of H2O2, this method is very popular in our country.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Is this "fake" lulo?
« on: October 23, 2020, 06:38:30 AM »Looks like naranjilla to me. I have the extra thorny sour ones that are used in Asia in papaya salads as lime substitutes with a bit of pdak. Their armoury is quite impressive.I have never tried a sweet type and yours look pretty good. I am forever pulling up seedlings popping up everywhere.I agree with you, the taste of the fruit was very sour and the only thing that pleased me was the pleasant aroma of the pulp.

Last year I had a similar situation, but the seeds I purchased from tradewindsfruit The plant and fruits were identical to your photos. I searched for information on the Internet and one of the found was that it is pseudolulo. According to other information, I read that this variete lulo is grown for mass production of juices.

Guys, if you lived in Russia, then all the fruits you listed would arouse great interest for you, and you would try everything, without thinking too much about the taste. The only question you would have is: Why the hell is nothing growing in my country !?

Guys, I live in Russia and that says it all! Can you imagine our weather? Now imagine how we grow everything here! Do you think I want to go somewhere? No way in my life! To achieve results and grow what, in fact, cannot grow in our country, this is a real thrill! I visit the greenhouses of my friends and am amazed at the plants they grow. There is a good Russian proverb - Where he was born, there he came in handy!

Hi guys. I am looking for Alibertia edulis male tree. I need a rooted cutting. This is not necessary this season, now there are problems with postal delivery, I am trying to negotiate for the future.
Also wondering if it is possible to inoculate a male specimen on a female, and end up with one plant? Regards.
