The Tropical Fruit Forum

Having issues with the website, it won't let me check out, the page says checkout. Placed a big order and decided to use PayPal and connected to my PayPal account, but the website doesn't process the payment, and now it won't let me pay with other options 

will these even be able to grow here without protection? Let alone fruit?

Hello, sadly last year none of my Mulberry grafts or Surinam cherry cuttings were grafted on. Wanted to try again this year so wanted to purchase some.

I'm ready

These are tricky to germinate and need a constant heat source that prevents the temperature from dropping below 70F

The big Cuban or central american Mameys are good in shakes or desserts, and the Yucatan cultivars tend to be smaller but sweeter, is what I have found. I personally prefer the green sapote over mamey they are far sweeter, and ripen much easier in addition they are far superior eating out of hand. Growing either one when grafted here in San Diego tends to be challenging, they just don't do so well and tend to die. But as seedlings they are thriving for me, I currently have 25 mamey seedlings that are around 3-5 years old and seem to be growing well. The Green Sapote seedling I have planted inground also seem to be thriving very well and loved these recent rains, I expect good growth this year.

Good stuff

Not at $50 per seed I’ve heard of inflation but damn!

It's actually a good price for the rarity of that seed also it's already germinated. The quality of his seeds is of excellent quality, I get all my seeds to germinate, and there as only be been a few that have been tricky.

Always has me coming back for more!! definitely my #1 seed provider

Worst seller I ever had to deal with, paid this dude on Dec 15. He kept promising he will be sending them to me. Never sent anything just kept saying that he will send them to me and never did anything. I don't get people like this, you pay them and they just keep giving you false hope that your product will be shipped and worst yet they waste your time.

Thanks, let me know when your scions are ready so I can buy some from you.

Does anybody sell or know anybody that sells ilama scions? have 3 cherimoya trees that are around 8 feet tall that I would like to graft ilama onto.

Lara Farms has it right now. Wish I could get some to CA.

Why can't that fruit be shipped to California? I know it's on the list but i wonder why
