I noticed there were a few posts that the prices were not listed. All posts now require the price of each item or your post will be deleted.

Must have missed that post . 1 Euro each to make things easy for Europeans . 1 USD for the rest of the world . Shipping depends on the weight and location .

Starting to flower now , if I like the flowers it can stay .

Season here is over now , next season starts in March .

I used to have 3 fruiting size trees , close to 5 meters tall , all 3 planted in a 1 M2 spot . They were doing great till one day they started to decline and died within 2 weeks . They were planted too close to a brook and had their roots constantly wet ...my mistake .... Since they are savanna trees I guess they like it dry . Planted 3 more 2 meters now .

I must have missed your post from Januari 2016 , glad I found it now , great info , thank you .

Kind of interesting information .

Months ago I was asked for fresh Mexican Garcinia fruits to be sent to a far away place . Picking these fruits one small 6 - 7 cm , under-develloped , totally green and hard as a stone also fell on the ground . I didn't want to send that one also so I kept it in my workplace , no refrigeration . The fruit ripened by itself and stayed good for several months , no rot . Never had the chance to try it , my wife cleaning my work area threw it away a few days ago ....

Hi Roy , is male and female needed to get fruit ? I still don't have this one btw....

Joe , there's no fast way from Brazil since exporting seeds is not allowed otherwise they could use Fedex or similar . For Asia that's what I use .

Congratulations Oscar !  4 years for Mike , 8 years for Peter and 12 for you ....mine is 9 years so there's hope .

2 weeks later , the white flowers turned red and it looks like fruit is forming .

Finally got to taste my own bilimbi , fruits were only about 10 cm long ( no idea how large they get in their natural habitat ) Found a few fruits on the ground and was prepared to have my tong burned ( was also eager to use the fruit to clean the blade of an antique Malaysian Kris ( dagger / sword ) I read somewhere that's what they use the fruit for besides in cooking ) Surprise ....I am not gonna say it was sweet like a mango but for sure a lot sweeter than some of my Eugenia pyriformis . First I just licked the fruit ( cut in half ) almost no acidity so I took a good bite 1/2 of the fruit . I didn't have to run to the pharmacy for anti acid pills at all , was actually a pleasant flavor . Now the question is : did I end up with one of those kinda rare sweet ones ( thanks to my Indian friend who send me the seeds )
