No, the fake one hasn't fruited yet either.  I'll post some pictures when they do

Not yet.  It flowered this spring for the first time but didn't set fruit.  Maybe next year

I have the real one and the fake one.  I can post pictures tomorrow to compare.  They do look different

I haven't been able to find pumice in bulk locally but I use Turface in its place for similar effect.

Have you tried eBay?

I'm looking for like 10 cubic feet of pumice, not economical to have delivered in small bags

Shpaz that mix sounds good and should last a long time.

I have a regular psidium guajava in a 20gal container that produces all the fruit I can eat at 3ft height & width.  I don't think you necessarily need a dwarf type if you prune it often.

P. viridis
P. campechiana
P. sapota
P. caimito
P. hypoglauca

I don't remember all the botanical names offhand so for the benefit of others also:

P. viridis = green sapote
P. campechiana = canistel/eggfruit/yellow sapote
P. sapota = mamey
P. caimito = abiu
P. hypoglauca = cinnamon apple

I often forget which Sapotaceae are Pouterias and which are in other genus, but other nice Sapotaceae are sapodilla and olosapo.   

I have some kind of pink guava (true guava - psidium guajava), I am not sure what type as it was mislabelled, but it looks similar to the common Ruby Supreme type.  Mine is a clone so I am not sure how true they are from seed nor how long it takes to fruit from seed.

It is soft when ripe, juicy and sweet.  I recommend it.  I don't like crunch guavas, either.   You might also like cattley guavas, both red and yellow types are nice.  Cattley guavas are commonly grown from seed and fruit quickly.

I'm currently growing 4 seedlings - all in containers in a greenhouse but this is my first go of it with Jackfruit. I'm looking at possibly using the seedlings for root stock down the line but for now just practice/interest in growing the plant itself. It'd be great to track down a couple interesting varieties to grow, I've only tasted store-bought which reminded me of some type of chewing gum that I can't quite place.

JuicyFruit gum is supposedly jackfruit flavored, I bet that is it

Garcinia Hombroniana / Seashore Mangosteen.  I have six or so healthy trees that are at least 5ft tall each, hoping for flowers soon.  I've never tried the fruit, just missed the season when I visited the Fruit and Spice Park.

Also my fern leaf guava.  Not sure when it will set flowers but it is 3ft tall and very healthy.

Thank you.  I assume other colors than white are okay also? 

First lemon drop was exciting for me, Thefatcuban, as the first garcinia I have grown to fruit.  My first two fruits were runts but the next few were bigger.  They are nice tasting and the plant is easy to care for.  I am looking forward to my achachairu and hombronianas (seashore) flowering soon as they look large enough.

I picked it a couple days ago and let it sit on the counter until it softened up further.  When I cut it open I found it was very unevenly ripe.  Some parts were soft with good taste and other parts were hard and not edible.  Hopefully better fruits in the next crop, but I am happy to see it fruiting nonetheless.
