Love my miracle fruit tree. Been eating off it for almost 2 years and still not bored. Small tree, easy to grow in container, very productive, and does well in mostly shade. The berries taste good, and change the flavor of just about anything you eat. Grapefruit tastes delicious without sugar. Passionfruit tastes sweet and not sour (I like sour, but sometimes want just sweet). An espresso tastes great with way less sugar. Beer even tastes different. Not everything tastes better, but nothing I have tried has tasted bad with miracle fruit. It's fun to experiment and show to other people. There are different cultivars, not all miracle fruit trees are the same and some are more effective.

Congratulations, she's a beauty!

Sapdodilla germinates easily for me in a pot of moist dirt, outside in the warm sunlight.

How is Glenn poor? I've had a wide variety of mangoes, and Glenn is far from poor. hardly any fiber, good flavor, tree has few disease issues.

My Fernandez may have been mislabeled as well then, because it looks just like yours

looks like both, but agree more like rollinia/biriba

...and I'm using FF also, Ocean Forest soil, mixed with good ole dirt and lots of mulch. Used fertilizer after about 6 months or so. Probably the slowest grower of all my passiflora (nitida, edulis, orgiant, laurifolia, panama red, gold, foetida hispida, possum purple, incarnata, etc.). Seems to like lots of water

My Glenn (almost 1.5 years in ground, over 10 feet tall) is covered with bunches of flowers. We had really good fruit during the summer off this tree.

I really like the idea of growing different plants together. It just makes a lot of sense. Pests love it when their preferred food source predominates an area. With more diverse gardens and farms, who knows what benefits could be achieved. Also, underneath trees is such a great place to grow low light edibles, plants that help the soil, and that deter pests.

I've  been using osmocote for 2 decades+ on all kinds of plants (potted and in-ground) and have never had any noticeable problems related to it. Everything seems to love it.

Hi everyone. Just joined recently and am happy to have found such a great meeting place for fellow plant enthusiasts. I'm growing a mix of fruit trees in-ground and containers, as well as vines, berries, veggies, herbs, and lots of flowers. Seems there is always room for another tree, despite what my wife says. Zone 10b, so lots of possibilities here.   

Of the fruits that I am growing, I have not ever tried many of them. That is changing, and haven't regretted growing anything yet. I just like finding something different.

My old landscaper told me I couldn't graft more than one variety of mango on rootstock, and dampened my dreams of a multi-mango dream tree. Thank you TFF members for paving the way on what was obviously not an original idea. Now I am planning on doing some top work on my Glenn and Nam Doc Mai #4.

Looking forward to learning lots here, sharing info, seeds, and cuttings.
