Very nice, probably is as good to eat as a mix of noni with a stone!
LOL
Luis,Really? This inga paterna i bought is one of those?
Some species of Inga are self incompatible and will need another plant in order to get fruit.
This ebay buying is my only hope to have one...Go to bottom of home page, and google search inside the forum with the word "inga". There have been several threads with info and photos on this topic.Thank you and i'm sorry... i'm new here...
No problem! I think you will enjoy reading some of the previous threads and seeing the photos. I posted some of those as i am a big fan of ingas.

The advertising looks very confuse to me, showing photos of different species of Inga.Really? Well for me any one is good, because i don't have none!
you don't have cold winters? Maby to trying more mild temp var....We've got people experimenting with olives in central FL also since citrus has become increasingly difficult to grow. I'd love to see acres and acres of olive trees on the hills of central FL where citrus used to grow!why citrus are difficult to grow? Olive trees are so beautifull, in my region we are sorrownded of them!
Olive trees grow most anywhere. Getting them to fruit is the key....they need some chill hours every winter.
The fruits are still hanging in the tree, I will try to protect it all the winter, we are 2 months from spring...Well tamarillos suffer a lot with cold below 0C... it will be a tuff strugle!

Amazing trees!! Imagine if the owner is able to thin out some of those clusters...I bet the sizes will be bigger. There's SO many in one cluster they look like grapes. I imagine it would be very difficult to reach them to thin them out.Yes i agree! My trees are all medium size!
I lived in orange county for a year and Ventura county for four years and I've never seen mangoes trees growing in people's yards before...I just don't think they were that popular then?
Luis, I bet they have a very long fruit picking poles to reach them...that's why its important to keep the the trees on the shorter side
Thanks for the photos Joe...I really enjoyed them...
I have 27 olive trees to make olive oil of lentrisca var.
Dr. Sauls was a little pithy but brilliant. Same with Jim Kamas from that article. He is assigned to my county, is also brilliant, does incredible fast moving workshops and was the Pierce's Disease head honcho hear the research station before the State pulled the funds. Here we are one the fastest growing, biggest grape and winery industries in the country, and the frickin' State pulls the funds! Another one of those "go figure".
The publication I referenced is "Fruit Quality Evaluations of Avocado Cultivars for Subtropical Texas", Weslaco, 1991. I gave The Avocado Man (Bill Schneider of Devine) a copy of it.

A lot of hard work falls on the way side due to lack of funding. It's a shame.
Yeah I've been reading all about the Wines from central Texas. Olive trees/oil is another one that shows great promise for the state of Texas.
Great publication Mark. It has some great information. Thanks.
I was investigating and the two jabuticabas are great! what fruit trees do you have?WOW!!! A lot of them i never heard about... how stand your jaboticabas? It's ones i want more!
Olá Luis,

This is Helton's site in Sao Paolo, right?i don't know...
I am doomed! a mile or so away in one direction is a very large Asian market, and a mile or so in the opposite direction is another one along with an equally large Hispanic market. Down the block from where I work is medium sized Indian/Pakistani market. All of them have cheap produce. All of them carry new and exiting stuff. I have no control over my spending habits.I just love to have it here too... but infortunately i don't!
