Matisia cordata "Chupa Chupa Zapote"
Iquitos super sweet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27AQf0gIfeQ

sachamango (Grias peruviana) This plant grows best in a humid tropical climate and clay soils, rich in organic material; its characteristics and great adaptability allow the plant to withstand the adverse conditions that occur during the rainy season.
The fruit grows along the trunk of the plant and its shape is similar to a mango, the skin is coffee colored while the flesh is orange and grows around a large white pit. The color, consistency and taste of the sachamango is similar to a carrot.

The sachamango is harvested by hand, it is peeled using a machete due to the hardness of its peel in order to be able to eat it. It is eaten raw, toasted or roasted over coals which results in a buttery consistency and a taste much like dried fruit.
In addition to the flesh, the indigenous population of Amazonia use the dried back and the pit to make teas that possess laxative and purifying properties.

Lacmellea peruvianus "Chicle Huayo"
Very sweet, and many locals favorite fruit. The latex gum around the seeds is a natural chewing and quite flavorful.

Passiflora tarminiana Banana Passionfruit

Could you please tell us more about the banana passionfruit? Anything you can tell us and if it will do well in Central Florida. Thanks!!!

Mark has great scions. I grafted some mary lane last spring and they have already grown 5+ft with a prune on top of that!
I second this. I got some from Mark last month and 3 of the grafts already have 3" branches and leaves that have formed with bright green leaves. I'm super green at grafting and these took well!!! Highly recommended!

Also want to note that With regards to this discussion about the checklist “fee” , it’s really just a deposit towards the cost of the first scion. It only becomes a fee if people decide not to pay the invoice. That’s not what this situation was about .

Thanks Alex, I appreciate it. I just resubmitted another variety that Becky says is good to go. Looking forward to grafting the white piri!

And thanks again fanboy.... Can someone kiss a** any more? Wow.

It has nothing to do with a $6 fee genius. I could care less. Just would like the scions I purchased without having to wait again. If that is asking too much in your opinion, that's unfortunate as I did not ask for one. It's a simple question which typically gets a simple answer as I am one of the orders that fell through the cracks obviously.
Pretty sure that they will refund you and you will have to place another order that's how their system works. 30 minutes after I place my order I realized that I wanted to add more. I just made another order and paid the fee. I'm thinking he has many things going on and I don't want to trouble him with something miniscule as the price of a cup of coffee and a donut.☕️🙂

Even if you place 2 separate orders in the same week, both fees get applied as a credit towards the invoice. Although we are likely going to change the deposit figure for larger orders.
Hi Alex,
Since I was not refunded yet, is it possible to swap to a different variety? I have a lot of cultivars I am looking for.

I think calling him and having a private discussion would be better than asking him to make an exemption publicly. There is the GoFundMe option if you can't afford another fee.😅

I requested and paid for my scions over a week ago. How long does taf typically take to contact you to ship them, and ship them?

The request lists get checked on Sundays and invoices emailed on late Sunday nights and Monday.

Mine must have got forgotten. It's been 2 Sundays and Mondays with no invoice or anything.

If you didn’t receive any invoice and it’s not in your spam folder , then the list likely checked as nothing ready, in which case you’ll receive a refund on the deposit this week. Normally you would have been notified of this by now but we are running behind after receiving checklists for close to 1,000 scions this last week and were short staffed on Sunday.
Is it possible to switch to another variety that you might have?

Did you get an email immediately following your order with the subject: "Thanks, we received your submission!"?
I did

I am Belizean, but haven't been back home since 2013, before I got into fruit trees 😞. I wish I could help, but I hope your son loves my country!!! I miss it so badly. BTW,  fun fact, Belize has the largest living barrier coral Reef in the world!!!

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Need advice on moldy Atemoya cuttings
« on: March 25, 2023, 12:52:18 PM »
Hey all. I received a bunch of moldy atemoya cuttings today. I am used to receiving cuttings wrapped in buddy tape but unfortunately these were sent in wet paper towels and moldy.

Any advice? Can I clean them with peroxide or something?

Thanks in advance.

Make sure to ask for a refund or for them to be re-shipped with buddy tape, as that's what you paid for.
