Please tell me when my turn comes.~
Is it still available?
I have two lakoocha trees that flower, then seem to drop the fruits before they develop. Not too sure what’s going on and I don’t know why I keep putting off eliminating them.
I have high hopes for a couple of two year old Kwai muk that are coming along nicely.
Thank You Karen , but I am still not convinced ....for comparison my grafted rambuttan for example , same thing ...plenty of fruit and no male in 100 km range .Female mabolo trees will produce by themselves, but will be seedless. Your rambutan tree definitely has some hermaphrodite flowers which produce some pollen, and that is why you are getting fruits. But if you had a male rambutan tree around you would get a lot more fruit, as in completely loaded.
Grafted ones produce pretty quick. I've got them in one gallons with fruit.
I agree Mark , but my project for the last ...15 years ...was ( that's it ....no more...I am getting too old ) improving blacks and reds to end up with the best that come true from seed and zero astringency , I ended up with about 4 .
Luc you've selected a good black variety with low/zero astringency and comes trus from seed?
Have you got some of those golden seeds available??
Only as an ornamental. It is very popular in botanical gardens because they are so strange looking with all the sausages hanging in mid air. I put sausage tree in same league with cannonball tree, also very strange looking and wonderful to look at, but strictly ornamental.
Agree with Oscar it is indigenous to this country and I have never heard it used as even a famine crop only ornamental and traditionally medicinal.
OK Raul .....3 years later now ...I got the seeds of our trees from our Brazilian friend Carlos . I talked to him a while ago his tree died and was happy to hear ours are still around . Maybe we should give them the same treatment as the jaboticaba ......water , water and more water .Nice memory Luc! 😄 Carlos Dream frutas, did you ever asked him about flavor of this fruit?

Hey Luc
Will you describe the taste of your fruit?
I have heard there is a sweet type of this garcinia?
Also is this one suppose to be more cold tolerant?
THANKS
How many years to fruit from seed?
if ordered more than 20, what kind of pricing are you offering? Or combine with the other things you're selling?
