This reminds me to check the local trees ..
And to Har : something similar happened at the orchard with and excellent fast bearing avocado hybrid , not even mentioning other grafted seedlings that were mowed down with the grass cutter...

My biggest plant ( seeds from Australia ) is 1,5 meter tall and wide , produces in abundance over several months , fruits are not bad at all when they fall by them self , not before .

The only mulch that is available and free here is the left overs from processing the agave plant to make Tequila , my idea is to cover the whole orchard with it to keep humidity in the ground and maybe keep the weeds a little under control . This mulch has a sweet sugary smell ( maybe it is sweet but I am not gonna taste it ) . If there are sugars in it , how would this affect the soil and plants ?? I did a small part as a test , so far nothing negative happened besides some white fungus growing here and there , will take a pic and post later....

Another G. hombroniana collected in Lancetilla , Honduras.

You must be doing something right Mike !!!!!

OK , got it , now I'll have to find the tree to check the leaves . A local old timer brought the fruit for me to propagate it . Thanks for the info guys.

Can anybody give me the correct scientific name of this one , pulp is yellow .
There is a round 1 " and a pear shaped one , are they the same .....

The E. itaguahensis also fruits a lot faster and a lot smaller , started to fruit this year at 50 cm tall , just a few fruits though and the birds got them....so I cannot comment about the taste.
Now waiting for the copacabana , not holding my breath according to Harri and Marco's comments , but then again , Marco told me the neonitida was his favorite Eugenia and for me it is way down the list.

Mike T ,
 
They love being pruned .  Can you tell me more about this pruning ?

Achachairu is one of the easiest to ID from the leaf , long and narrow...
A few years ago I talked to a Bolivian guy from the main achachairu area , Santa Cruz , don't remember his tittle but was in the plant field , a scientific guy . He said that over there they have a lot of different achachairus , they categorize them in 2 , the acid/sour and the sweet ( more or less )  All are called achachairu with the addition of big - medium or small .

So the one that the Australians planted by the 1000 ands would probably be the " medium , sweet achachairu " translated from Spanish , he also told me there was no agreed scientific name .

 

No Oscar , Ken mentioned it , he thinks it's a great fruit ......

Garcinias in general Adam , I still have several Garcinia ( tags got lost over the years ) in nursery bags and was considering planting them.
