Beautiful tree!

27
Any so cal members bough seeds from this vendor? I would like a seedling or two if anyone from so cal bought seeds.

28
I received the regular mail  envelope today.  I opened it up and was disappointed that the plastic bag contains 0 seeds.
The mail does not appear to be opened by anyone yet other than me.

LOLOL

same thing happened to my friend who bought from luke

29
But how does it taste??

30
My order hasnt arrived. Too soon. Maybe Tuesday.


31
Maybe the red shell is just for looks...

32
Can you describe the flavor profile? How does it taste compared to the traditional Chinese longans?

33
a nice 'isan indigo' fruit and half cut section showing 'meatiness' and low seed counts.




I like how it's still holding it's form and not just sugary muck

34
My parfiankas are pink right now. I hope they're not fakes or mislabeled palnts.

Does the fruit start out as pink colored and gradually turn blood red like yours?

35
Just an idea, but would be interesting to breed this with a Lisa or Noel's big red... maybe get some really interesting red offspring.

Or cross it with one of the jumbo size moyas... jumbo geffner, jumbo ap, pink's mammoth, etc.

It was mentioned the tree was in ground for 5 yrs. Do you know the actual age of the tree? How big is the tree?

Can anyone spot what's wrong with these longan leaves??

New california plastic law. If the word biodegradable in the product feature is removed, this would solve the problem.

The inga feuillei roostock has already been decapitated. The canopy is inga vulpina only.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Inga Vulpina Impostor
« on: July 31, 2017, 03:39:11 PM »
I bought this tree as inga vulpina from eBay seller 7 heads. The 3-4 year old & 6-7 ft tree is on a double rootstock with inga feuillei as the added roostock.

It finally bloomed but I was expecting pink flowers for this species but I was surprised and disappointed when I saw white/yellow flowers when it finally bloomed. What can this be?

Excellent work!! You did this earlier in the season too when it was a lot cooler. What variety is this?

Those are good mangos. I had a box of it.

Don't let them turn soft. Much better green and crunchy.

Happy Father's Day everyone! Frank, another bountiful and beautiful harvest from your orchard.

Simon

Same to you Simon. Just patiently waiting for mango season to start

Hey Frank, what type of canister is that?

49
I'll take 6. I'm very close to you. Can you send by first class in padded envelope?

Did you actually eat the fruit? How does it compare to the regular soursop fiber wise?

I think they're two different longans. The one you're referring to is ilian/ilao.
