The Tropical Fruit Forum

I am also willing to send the surinam cherries themselves.   I have waaaaay more than I can possibly consume. 

Canistel - I planted it without ever tasting the fruit based on the recommendation of a guy at the nursery.  Needless to say it is not my kind of thing.  I can't bring myself to chop it down because the thing is just so darn healthy and produces well.  I hear it is good with ice cream so perhaps I will try that next time. 

I mourn the loss of a variegated pink lemon that needed to be relocated and didn't make it. 

I have a dozens of surinam cherry seeds up for trade.  Send me anything that will grow in south florida and you have yourself a deal.  Private message me for details

Let me know what you have up for grabs.  I have 5 miracle fruit plants and they currently produce more than I can use.  I figured I can thin the herd and get something new in its place. 

Thanks folks.  It was getting very laborious to track down a turpentine mango seedling.  I am now trying my hand at grafting and want to get the best results I can.  I thank you very much for your input and will source a different rootstock based on your recommendations.  Any other tips for someone just starting out?

I have a garden containing: Sugar Cane, Miracle Fruit, Lychee, Longan, Canistel, Loquat, Bardados Cherry, Surinam Cherry, Nam Doc Mai Mango, Myer Lemon, Jaboticaba and more.  I am offering cuttings or, when available, seeds in exchange for similar.  I am mostly looking for small plants of any variety of mango, avocado, sapodilla or citrus but will look at anything cool that I don't have.  I love in Parkland (South Florida) and will happily add cash to the deal if someone has something enticing. 

I am looking for information on the best root stock to use for a mango cocktail tree.  I was told by a local botanical garden that turpentine mango is the most coveted for this purpose.  Do you have any other suggestions or ideas where i can buy a turpentine mango tree or seed?  I love in south florida and am looking for anyone who has something interesting to sell or trade. 

Does anyone have any turpentine mango seeds, fruit or plants that they are looking to sell.  No nursery in South Florida seems to have them.  Any guidance as to where I can find it in south florida would be greatly appreciated.
