Oscar you seem to be correct. I looked at this a couple of years ago and the medium confidence only on the plant list and comments I was seeing and the original paper not being fully embraced made me doubt the new name. Some were even listing L.parasiticum as a synonym rather than the reverse. See the examples below. I take it all back.

The name Lansium parasiticum (Osbeck) K.C.Sahni & Bennet has been proposed for this species. It has not been universally accepted yet (2014), so we are maintaining the name Lansium domesticum for the time being

They seem to grow really well in 4000mm/yr rain and some varieties like cool weather less than others.

GA3 can make seedlings not only elongated but more vulnerable to becoming a casualty from other causes.Damping off and dying back like that is nearly always due to soil fungus. Whether phosphonate or Alliette will help I don't know but clean premium potting mix to start the seedlings out is important.

My E.matossi is 1m high and 1.2 wide after maybe 5 or 6 years and it flowers nicely.It still hasn't set a fruit.

Were they treated with GA3 and became etoliated?

Is it on Mt Leseur the home of D.macrantha?

Escarlate is the fastest and less than 3 years.

I haven't tried the fruit yet but online reports are positive. The fruits are really red.

They have exceeded expectations and have a firmer texture than most congenors.I am a tough critic with Eugenias and I would only place E.lutescens ahead of it from all the species I have tried.

I was told that this is the finest Eugenia fruit for eating out of hand and 2 of my 3 small trees flowered and fruited.



Eugenia pitanga I found no better than E.uniflora.A little bland and a little resinous.



The new jabs for me escarlettte and red hybrid are great and have more than met expectations.



I have a E.lutescens and tries the solitary fruit and it was great and almost apricot like.The verdict on E.pyriformis x lutescens is that the fruit do not live up to expectations and are more sour than sweet , they have a little bit of a resinous aftertaste and the flavour is not really rich and fruity.Not as good as pitangatuba.Perhaps being a hybrid mine has thrown too much to pyriformis and they are not all like this.

There are much drier areas and even deserts closer to the US border.The trees drop lots of leaves in the dry season.

Xanthochymus varies from very sour to sour/sweet and are large and often have a point and dulcis varies from sweet to sour/sweet and are a bit smaller. The fruit in the pic there looks more like dulcis.The trees are different. I am still not sure if the Russell sweet is a divergent form of dulcis.


I am yet to figure out what cochinchinensis in south America really is.
Good luck with them Josh they look nice.

Starapples and juicy pearls do fine in clay soils. Juicy pearls fruit at 3 years old and the tree is smaller than starapples. The juicy pearl has a different shape and size from those that Oscar has by the look of it even if they are the same species and probably subspecies. I am sure they graft onto each well as they are obviously closely related.
