Hey Adam, just wanted to say thanks for that 3 gallon white Jabo you sold me a few weeks ago, and lething me sample some of the fruit, they were awesome. I really like the leaves, and it just pushed a bunch last week.  I haven't forgot, I will send you some pics of my Pitomba this weekend.

To all the forumers, buy Adam's seeds!

Hey Adam, I tried to stop by your place a few times a month ago, but could never make it happen. Fortunately, my schedule is wide open until the end of August. I am very interested in both kinds of boxes. I will be in touch later today, so I can set up a time to finally see your new place.

How much is an acre in Phoenix?

Alex's (Squam) off Southern Blvd in West Palm, right next to 95. Plus Walter Zills residence in Boynton, and Truly Tropical. Then all kinds of places in the Redlands south of Miami. I was just down in Palm Beach County last weekend, and every mango tree in every yard is popping. I saw creepers everywhere, eyeballing mangos on people's trees. Frigging mango extravaganza in SFL right now.

I want a seat! 

My stupidest mistake took place in front of my daughter.  I was coming back from Costa Rica and was curious how the customs people dealt with people bringing seeds into the US.  I had collected a dozen or so yellow cashew seeds, a few dozen guanabana seeds, some heliconia seeds, and some ornamental seeds as well. So, my daughter and I are going through customs, and I told the customs agents I had brought some seeds back, and was hoping to talk to them and pick their brains while they inspected my ornamental seeds that I had planned to show them.  Well it didn't work out as planned, they wouldn't let me take them out of the bag for inspection, and decided to do it themselves, and guess what, they found the cashew seeds instead of the ornamentals.  The funny thing was, neither of the customs agents had a clue what kind of seeds they were.  So after a little bit of talking, the female agent whips her knife out, and proceeds to cut into the cashew nut.  I am telling her not to get the juice on her skin, because it most likely will cause a bad rash, and she tells me she knows what she's doing.  Wham, juice bleeds all on their table, hits her arm just above the glove, and without even a comment throws my seeds in the the garbage.  I am just standing there staring at her arm and waiting, but she just tells me to leave.  Needless to say, I felt like a dumbass in front of my 15 year old daughter who knew what was going on, and how much I valued those cashew seeds.  She still makes funny smuggling comments whenever I travel.

Thanks for the seeds Oscar, got 90% germination. So on to waiting....

I have a sand hill forest, just a half mile from my house.  There are a couple of large areas covered in gopher apples, plus bunches of gopher tortoises, all along the paved trail that goes through the area.  When these areas are fruiting, its pretty awesome to see.  There are also lots of Vaccinium stamineum, in the area, and all are currently fruiting.  I will try to get pics of some of the mats.

Mine just has 1 or maybe if I'm lucky 2 growth flushes a year, but i water it heavily from March to the beginning of winter.  I found that it can take granulated fertilizers without tip burn, but the last few years I have been feeding it fish/kelp fertilizers.  Mine was originally in part shade but once I transplanted it to a 15 gallon pot, I moved it to full sun, at least 6 hours to 8 hours a day.  But basically the growth flushes are only a half foot on average.  Good luck all, because its actually a decent fruit, and the tree is beautiful.  I am trying an air layer on an offshoot right now, any one have any luck propagating them this way?

Sorry if I didn't respond to any PMs  , as I was away for most of the weekend.

The reason my prices seem so good to most of you Cali residents is I am just a collector, and I will be selling my house at the end of summer and I really need to sell all of the big trees and extras I have.  I originally planned to have purchased land by now and had these trees planted in ground, but a life curveball is pushing that back a year or so.  Check back because I am planning to add more trees and pics to the list tonight or tomorrow.   

I have some 25 gallon trees and one 15 gallon tree for sale.  Unfortunately I will be moving this summer, and need to thin the herd.  I am in Titusville, Florida but travel frequently throughout both the central and southern parts of the state on weekends, so bringing the trees to these areas shouldn't be a problem.

Send PM if interested

Other than Just Fruits and Exotics up in the Panhandle, you are not gonna find them too easily.  You could also try Durionursery.biz, but they too are out of the Smith variety.  Not sure about Excel, but I have seen cuttings listed on Ebay.

I just started 5 cuttings of Smith that I got off EBay, from a seller who is on a couple of the fig forums.  I think he has more cuttings for sale if your interested in going that route.

If they all take, I will not need that many, so I could sell you one for a much lower cost than having a small plant shipped to you.   Send me a PM if your interested.
