I bought one a few years ago but it was very hard to find/get.. I had to convince the seller to sell me/ let me trade one she was selling me for one of her personal trees of UF Best meant for her orchard. Right now during spring time she has peaches for sale and may be selling some trees again but not sure especially UF Best. I missed the opportunity to pick up some rootstocks for grafting some but maybe soon you can get scions? I also have tropic snow and several other varieties
Anyone know where I can find UF best peach trees? I have looked and looked, but am having no luck at all
My seedling white sapote trees all fruited in 5-10 years by letting the central leader/trunk grow without being topped off.
I grow Tropic Sweet and Ein Shimer(sp?). Both have been in the ground for close to a decade, neither grow very fast nor do they produce much. If I get a couple apples each then its a bumper year. It never crossed my mind that RKN could have something to do with it.
Is Mame sapote same breed. Can it be grafted to other sapote.
While I am researching which plant to buy. Do have a regular sapote plant.
Sure! Send me a DM with what you are interested in.
Don't apply any fertilizer in a hole. The roots can't effectively take up fertilizer that is so highly concentrated. It will burn the roots and eventually leach into the soil.
Spread a little at a time on the surface and water in or let rain carry it into the soil.
Just wanna add that adding soil to the base of a tree like your achacha could potentially cause issues like rot or disease, as most fruit trees are sensitive to changes in soil depth around their trunks. Your gut instinct to hesitate is probably spot-on.
If your achacha tree is struggling with stability, it might be worth looking into staking or other forms of support rather than burying part of the trunk in soil. Also, consider checking its overall health; sometimes, instability can be a sign of root or other issues.
For specific advice tailored to your situation, consulting an arborist could be really valuable. I found this tree-doctor-houston.com site that offers a lot of useful information and services that could help you diagnose and treat any issues your tree may have.
Not sure if you received my pm or if messaging is working, are you able to sell?
