The Tropical Fruit Forum

With the Dolores Red seedless guava mother tree in La habra gone (not available), I am looking for someone who bought a tree from JF and willing to sell scions from it.

So sorry to hear the bad news. My condolences to the Haluza family.

What a bargain John!... I should enlist you to make trees for me.   

The tree is now about 7 feet tall.
I thought it would be way bigger than that after all these years.
I was told it hasn’t fruited yet, but probably should by next year... being 7 years old already.

Thank you all for participating in this year's sale.  I know that folks on the waitlist could not be accommodated.   Hence, I will attempt to make more trees in June for sale next year.

As of Sunday, 4/18/21, half of the trees have been picked up. 
I have heard from 1 more today, but 3 others I am waiting to hear back from you.

UPDATED 4/04/21:

For those of you that reserved the 8 White Pirie (WP) and 1 Juicy Peach (JP) mango trees...

I will start distribution on/after April 16, 2021.

I've reduced the prices after a reassessment of the trees.  There are 7 WP trees in 5 gal pots and 1 WP tree in 3 gal pot, and 1 JP tree in 3 gal pot:  The trees are very small in comparison to most Florida bought trees.  They are all on Kent rootstock, which have been shown to be decent in CA.  They are also in a great 50% perlite and 50% peat moss acid mix. 
5gal potted WP $60
3gal potted WP $50 (reserved for othater)
3gal potted JP $50 (reserved for Jeffh)
The PPK is no longer available and removed from the list.
The Alphonso is no longer available and removed from the list.

I can accept Paypal prepayment or cash that day.   Those on the reserve list have all been sent a PM with my contact and payment info.
Thanks you for being patient during these Covid times.

There are 4 on the waitlist in case there are any cancellations:

Crystal seedless guava is from Malaysia.  It is not a Taiwanese variety.  Also, Crystal leaves are not really round.

You can try Champa nursery in El Monte, but I don’t recall if Jimmy at Champa has them.  Best to give him a call.
Btw, I recall someone once telling me that Tropical Bonsai Nursery (Charlie) is the house/property next door to Champa, but I have never independently verified this.
Perhaps you can try Mimosa(East LA), but I have always felt their prices were quite high. 
Unfortunately, you have desired an item that has a somewhat limited number of local vendors, and hence, commands a higher price.

Updated.  Please see reservation list in the 4th post.
All 8 White Pirie’s and the PPK have been reserved.

There are still also small trees of Alphonso (5gal pot) and Juicy Peach (2gal pot) available.

I will have 8 Hawaiian White Pirie mango trees for sale (local buy only) in spring 2021....after the covid pandemic subsides a little.
They are in 2, 3, or 5 gallon pots. 
They were cleft or veneer grafted onto Kent rootstocks.
They vary in size from 2-3 feet tall at this time.
They have been grown in a 50/50 peat moss and perlite mixture.
The price will likely be between $50-$80.

I am putting a feeler out there, as there is limited stock.
Please let me know if you are interested in reserving one.
Thanks.

There are also small trees of alphonso (5gal pot), juicy peach (2gal pot), and PPK (5gal pot).
