oh man, the preview for the thread said Growing....and then i saw BoxTurtle...but it was a username associated with the thread, and not part of the title, and i had this vision of box turtles in pens underneath trees, and people were growing boxturtles, by keeping them fed on fruits and bugs that ate the rotting fruits......
but now i see this isn't what's going on here....
sorry, off topic rant....
bye now.

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: ODD BALL Species: Rare Fruit Trees Being Trialed & Experimented in FL
« on: September 06, 2020, 02:32:32 PM »Interesting vid Adam. Wait for those flying saucers to land and you will be surprised. Those goose eggs should be laid on a few people as well because they are good. Lakoochas can be fair sized trees and the fruit taste a bit like almost ripe apricots with plenty of flesh. The kwai muks also can get big and are even more cold tolerant. The fruit are a bit reddish inside and surprising like a juicy fig. I think the shangs have a tomato flavour going on as well.
thanks ... i never noticed any tomato flavor on these shangs, just like strawberry jam, but tart, slight astringency, and texture of guava paste, I love themz, just wish they'd finally set fruit...had flowers so far, but no fruits, it's like a liana, not a true tree, behaving like bougainvillea...
