Thank you Oscar and Lindsay.

I have never tasted a Durian, from what I have read the smell may be
off putting but after watching this video talk, I am getting myself ready
to buy a frozen one at local Asian market.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Rauls's illama (annona diversifolia) seeds
« on: November 16, 2017, 05:55:00 PM »
My Illama seed from JF germinated after I did not water the foam cup for about a month.
This might have simulated dry season dormancy.Once I started watering it again it sprouted.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Has anyone in here ever grafted guava ?
« on: November 05, 2017, 09:31:21 PM »
My first (and only) attempt so far at cleft grafting Mexican creame
onto Variegated guava was failure.

I have good success rates at Annona and Mango grafting.

Mine is growing well, has big broad leaves, bought as 3 gallon tree, but tree is from florida (mostly on turpentine root stock), so remains to be seen how it does here in SoCal in future.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Pseudo-xenic effect of allied Annona spp. pollen on cv. 'Arka Sahan’ atemoya.
« on: October 18, 2017, 01:09:43 AM »
Thanks, for sharing! Its a good read.

Learned that sugar apple pollen works great for Arka Sahan.
On the forum somewhere there was mention that the Dream atemoya in Florida is actually arka sahan.
If this is true, this is good information for anyone growing Dream/Arka Sahan.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Advice needed: Dig this sweet tart mango stump up or see what happens?
« on: September 16, 2017, 06:40:58 PM »
Whether it will be sweet tart or not depends if the new growth is above the graft or below, you can always graft later if the new growth is from root stock.
