If no locals claim it I'll open it up to shipping for the states that allow it.

Hello,

I’m looking to buy mango scions of the varieties below:

Orange Sherbet
M-4
Super Julie
Piña Colada
Sweet Tart
Maha Chanok
Pickering
Cotton Candy
Lil Gem

Lemon Meringue
Philippine
Kesar
East Indian
Madame Francis
Neelam
Carrie
Ice Cream
Raw Honey
Kasturi
Sugarloaf
Manohar

I don’t know if it’s too much to ask but I’d prefer to go and select the scions myself and wrap them on site to ensure the best possible take rate.  If you have any rare varieties you’d like to share with me I’d really appreciate it as well.  I plan to buy at least 75 at a time but I’m not able to pay more than $2.50 each.  Thank you for your time.

Of your list I have
Orange Sherbet
M-4
Maha Chanok
Pickering
Cotton Candy
Neelam

My fruited for one year, i just cut back the multigrafted section.
It was vigorous and upright in growth habit.

Nothing interesting in the taste or texture.
It had some disease problems, MBBS

I'm growing this in a pot for now but plan on putting them in the ground in 2 years.
Does anyone have any tips on soil conditions?
I'm assuming they prefer to be treated like normal plinias but I'm not sure how tolerant they are to higher PH.

I'm looking to plant inflata, and edulis as well.

Thanks to everyone who came by.
I hope you guys enjoyed the fruit.

These abius were a little bit better than last year's crop, but I do have less on the tree so that might be the reason

Concerning shipping:
It looks like I have enough local interest so I won't be able to ship much

It's possible I can pair a few abiu with some Orange sherbet mango in a medium box so everyone has a chance to try it.
I'm sort of limited on both fruits now. Can't ship to CA guys, sorry.
I'm thinking $65 for a 3-4 abius and 3 orange sherbet mango.

Please let me know if you are interested.

11
This abiu I've tried and it's my favorite one out of all the seedlings I've had so far!
Skhan always has the best fruit!

I appreciate the kind words and I'm glad you enjoyed the fruit.
Sorry we couldn't meet up again this mango season.
Looks like you've been having a good bit of success in you're area, keep up the good work and keep us posted.

12
I just picked a 5 gal bucket filled with abiu.
$7/lb, local pick up for now.
They're around 6 oz each
I'll look into shipping for Monday



I still have a few mangos. Mostly orange sherbet and venus



13
I appreciate the kind words guys
The season is almost over, I'll be happy to get a break for a few days

14
Update: 7/16/24

I will probably only have mangos for sale for 2 more weeks.

We have:
CAC
Orange Sherbet
Peach Cobbler
Venus
Mahachanok

The season is almost done

I don't know much about this annona, I tried looking around.
Does anyone have any information about it or better yet experience with it?

I grafted a few of these earlier this year for fun and they look healthy and unique.

Orders closed.
Thanks everyone for you responses.

Hopefully, I'll be home next time they come.
I'll talk to my neighbors next time I see them.

Since some of the fruit is hanging over their yard and they have always been cool with me.
I'm hoping I can at least give them a cost so they can send an invoice and get a few free cuts

 I just lost two huge soursops yesterday. I installed 13 cameras prior to it and got their license plate and filed report with police. They dont seem to care. I went through my camera and noticed they came several days ago and scouted it out but someone was home. They waited until 6 am a few days later and came back when lights were off.

 I did harvest a soursop a few days prior and when i cut into it it was completely seedless. It was a perfectly shaped fruit too. The other two fruit were on the same branch and was thinking I may have a mutation and just want to know now if the other fruit had seeds. all the fruit on that branch were setting perfectly shaped fruit without hand pollination.

O wow, thats terribile.
And thats a good type of soursop too.
Its crazy the lengths some of these people go through to steal fruit.

22
I have a surplus of Peach Cobbler, Orange Sherbet, and CAC mangos.
I individually wrap each mango with plenty of packing paper and can fit around 9 mangos in a large USPS flat rate box 12x12x8
I'll put 3 of each variety in a box

I'm asking $75 a box including shipping.

I can ship to the states that allow it. (Can't do CA)

Please PM me or post here.
I can only fill around 10-15 boxes
I plan on shipping them out on Wednesday (7/10/24) so I'll take orders until 9:00 PM EST 7/9/24

The first video you can see the neighbors lawn guys walk off with two full bags of orange sherbet.

The other family looks like they only got a hand full
