The Tropical Fruit Forum

Been picking mangos for the last few days and I saw this guy on the tree.
I'm sure the recent rains helped.
I know in the true tropics they get bigger but this is the biggest I got from my tree so far


Mods: move to discussion section please

Hey guys I've been noticing a few guava type worms in a few of my caimito this year.
Last year the fruit were pretty clean.
Anyone else get this problem? Are there solutions?

I have around 40 red jaboticabas in square one gallon pots.
Selling them for 25 each. If you want a tray worth ( I'll sell it for $15 each, ($120) total.





Local pickup only

As the title said I'm selling red hybrid and blue (vex.) jaboticaba.
That red are from my tree the blue are from f&s Park.



Heres a typical shot. The reds don't like my city water on their leaves so I plan to pot them up and put them on drip.

I'm selling them in a set of 4 (mix and match) for $50. Shipping included.
Can't ship to CA or other states that don't allow it.
Pm me if interested.

I should have enough to fill a few boxes.

 
Most of my atemoya are fruiting this year.
Apparently I got African pride scions instead arka sahan when I ordered them years ago.
So anyone who ordered arka sahan from me got African pride as well.
Sorry for the mix up, I never wanted AP, I was aiming to trial as many of the new annonas in soflo so this is a step back. I might try topworking it in spring.

Below is a pic of a calostro and an AP I picked this week.
AP is smaller

Updated QTY (6/14/2022)

Hey everyone, I was trying to document my yard over the years with pictures but now that most of the trees have grown into each other it seems like a video makes more sense.
First up annonas

Let me know what you think or if I should add any more info.


Here is a link to the previous post with the pictures.

Hey everyone.
Over the last few years, I've been trying to transition my nursery over to annonas.
it's a very small operation since I'm doing this at my house a 0.180 acre lot.
There is only so much scaling up I can do so I decided that selling 1 gallon trees would be the best for everyone.
I'm mainly trying to spread these other annonas around, I remember how hard it was to find a Dream when I was first starting.

I got most of this budwood a few years ago from forum member JF.
The only ones I got to fruit so far were calastro and birula but I have been neglecting them. (Didn't hand pollinate or fertilize much)

Please post questions on this thread so everyone can benefit.

One word of warning. Annonas (atta type) are finicky and 1 gallon trees are finicky so only buy if you can provide the right environment for them to thrive. (Our extra moisture can kill them)
Also whenever the tree grows to size please make the budwood available to the community (sell it for whatever you want, I just want the genetics to be around long enough so we can determine what works best in south Florida)

Here's a list of what I have to sell. ($50 each)
7 4 arka sahan,
3 1 calastro,
4 1 cherilata,
4 0 dream
2 1 Hawaii pink mammoth.
All of the above are in cherimoya rootstock.

I might have a few more cherilatas coming in a month on Montana rootstock.

Local pick up only. 
PM me if interested

Hey guys I have a few trees in ground that I'm selling.

This Rain forest plum has been in the ground for around 4 years planted from a 15g it's around 6-7ft now. It really benefits from lots of water. Even with my in ground irrigation system during the dry season it doesn't look the prettiest.
So far this is my favorite Eugenia.
Flowers and fruits in winter. With more water it flowers for like half the year.

Dig it up and it's yours for $70










Some story with this trompo canistel from zhpp.
I just don't like canistel enough to want a tree. I tried.
Dig it up and it's yours for $40.






I'm planning on planting a olosapo here instead. Hopefully that does better for me

I've seen a million threads like this but with mangos.
I'm sort of surprised there hasn't been much talk with all the hype the last few years.
I'm no expert on plinias or myrciarias but I'm familiar with some of the older ones.

So the question is if you had room to plant five in the ground without a frost concern what would you pick?

Atemoya
Birula - 7g - $90
Calastro - 3g - $70
Dream - 7g - $80
Dream - 3g - $65
Tropic Sun - 3g - $65

Custard Apple
Fernandez (on A. Montana) - 3g - $50 (for those who want to trial this long term)

Others
passiflora decaisneana - 1g - $20
Sweet Tamarind - Free
Leucaena - Free
Cacao - Free
Machete Ice Cream Bean - Free
Ice Cream Bean (6ft one from PR) - Free

PM or text me if you are interested

Local Pickup only.

I'm looking to expand my non red reticulata collection
Does anyone have the vivian variety (seeds, seedlings, Budwood, Grafted) for sale?

I have a few grafted annona plants (Tropic Sun, Calastro a few others) and other annonas seedlings that I can trade
Buying outright works for me too.
