Moved to Stuart - looking for these trees
« on: March 06, 2021, 04:24:19 PM »
It’s been a busy few years so I haven’t been on in a while. We moved from Broward County to Stuart, FL. I went to Excalibur today to restart my collection and there are a few things I’m looking for. (1) Jujube - Thai Giant, (2) black sapote - Matt’s Giant, (3) Guanabana - Miami. I think I got all these from Mike Bender. :( I don’t know where to go now.

I'd check Laras for the Miami SS.
I think PIN should have the Jujube.
I don't know much about black sapote, never heard of that variety, sorry

I believe PIN has the Matt’s Giant black sapote as well.

I don't know the Matt's Giant variety.  Reinecke is excellent, sweet, and very large.  Decent Winter crop, IF fertilized with Calcium Sulfate, when growing on sandy soils.
