Only 120 seeds left!
This variety's name is still debatable!
However, this is a very sweet big fruit size jabuticaba. My tree is approximately 10 to 12 years old, and it stands approximately  6 to 7 feet tall.
This variety can be cultivated in a container, easily.
Just send me an email, and you are going to have one of the best jabuticabas, in my opinion.

Hello folks,
I have some extra fresh seeds for sale

1) Pitangatubas (Eugenia neonitida) - Excellent for juices, ice creams, drinks, and liquor. One of the best ice creams! - Lots of seeds available

2) Sweet Granadilla (passiflora ligularis) -  Excellent to eat out of hand. It does much better at temperate climate in high elevation. Few dozen seeds available

3) Maracuja Doce (passiflora alata) - Superb to eat out of hand. It tastes like a sweet melon with extra honey. Yesterday, I picked over 60 fruits from my vines!      Lots of seeds available

4) Vavangue/Spanish Tamarind (vangueria madagascariensis) - Average  fruit to eat out of hand.  Poor flesh to seed ration. Easy to grow in a large pot.  My trees are in a 10 gallon pot and produced over 30 fruits this year. Couple  dozen seeds available

5) Bacupari Miudo (garcinia brasiliensis). Good fruit to eat out of hand. Flesh to seed ration a bit disappointing,  excellent flavor.  It may take up to four (4) in the juvenile stage. It grows extremely sloooooooow.  Very small tree easily kept in a large pot. It is pretty much ever bearing here in SW Florida.  Fruits all year along.  Few seeds  available at the moment!

I have some extra fresh seeds of myrciaria spiritosantensis for sale.  The seeds come from a tree that is approximately six (6) feet tall.  The tree is loaded with fruits and it started fruiting when it was approximately four (4) feet tall.  This variety is ideal for container culture.  The fruit is very large, close to the size of a pig pong ball.

Out of curiosity, today, I contacted Fruitscapes and The Treehouse Nursery and both of them have Nishikawa avocado trees for sale.  Both nurseries will deliver the trees, for a few, to the South/Southwest  Florida area. 
Fruitscapes -  Steve Cucura (239) 462-2341 http://www.floridafruitscapes.com/Home.aspx
The Treehouse Nursery - Lianne Murray or Allisyn Ramirez (239) 283-3688 

I have bought several different types of trees from both nurseries!

Anyone growing this fruit?

I have some nice fresh pitangatuba seeds for sale!  Eugenia Neonitida

My trees keep producing fruits since April of this year.  They are planted in five (5) gallon and ten (10) gallon pots. They love being in pots in full sun where they get water every day and organic fertilizer every couple weeks.  They are very easy to cultivate in pots, and the fruits make the best juice, ice cream, cocktail drinks, or dessert  (please refer to Adam's vanilla ice cream recipe).

I will ship them in moist paper towel in a  bubble wrap envelope.  Please send me a private email if interested.

The public is invited to attend this presentation!  Please come and enjoy the presentation of a well known fruit enthusiast!
