I still have several seashore mangosteen seedlings available in central FL/zone 9b

Seedlings are shipped barefoot.

Seedlings are $12 each. USPS Priority shipping is $9. 6 seedlings can fit in a single $9 box.

How’s the taste from your fruit? Are they dioecious?
Cheers!

They are more acidic/tangy than their sweet purple cousins. They have much climate tolerant than the purple.

Can you advise what species this is please.  (Common names are not always accurate for a species ID.)

TIA

I ordered 3 last year and they all make it through the winter here.  My plan is graft the purple mangosteen to them if I can find scions.  Seashore mangosteen is good rootstock for it, at least that is what I read online.

I have one from a couple years ago and it has been my most vigorous garcinia.  Because they are dioecious I ordered a few more.

Will you have seeds later, maybe? Big worry for me on BAREROOT.

They ship well bareroot at that size. Damp paper towel should suffice.

I shipped a couple sets from central Florida to Cali between Black Friday and Christmas. The 3 days priority shipping took almost a week. I’ve shipped several several dozen across the country this way. To my knowledge, all survived the trip and replanting, incident free.

The delicate part is re-potting. You cannot pack the dirt around the roots. Dirt must be added to the pot around the roots and then watered in

mine just arrived.  They look very healthy, the root wrap was still moist.   I set them up in a shady corner of my greenhouse.

I'm pleased, thanks cnesmith!

I would not worry about bareroot shipping. I have shipped bareroot with a little bit of soil before, seems to have no issue. I'm not sure about 100% bareroot, but I don't imagine it will be a problem if packaged properly.

Over the past 6 months I’ve shipped several dozens of these seedlings across the country bareroot. They have all been packaged the same, and you can see examples of that packaging here in the comment section. Too my knowledge, all seedlings arrived happy and healthy and took well to the transplant
