The Tropical Fruit Forum

I am always amazed at what tastes change after eating miracle berries. They get rid of the heat in spicy foods, take the metallic taste out of your mouth caused by certain medications, and change the flavor of mediocre fruits. If only they would make coffee taste sweet!!

CarolynHi Carolyn , so you are saying if I eat a miracle berry, then I can eat a hot pepper and it wont burn my mouth ?

I am in Spring Valley, can I pick up?

These are medium easy to start from cutting. I done it and shared a bunch that started successfully as well. I been raving about this one saying someone needs to commercialize because it requires zero water and fruits early season and beautiful red tasty orbs.

Hi Jonah thanks for the comment, do you remember how you started the cuttings time of year exc.?

Interested in your taste opinion on these congrats on fruiting them Patrick.

Hi Scott finely tasted one yesterday, really liked the fruit and my wife loved the fruit, flavor was interesting kind of like a plum that was very juicy but not quite ripe with maybe some kind of berry flavor added in

Interested in your taste opinion on these congrats on fruiting them Patrick.

I will let you know when they get ripe

Hi All anyone pruning there " Che " trees I am looking for cuttings of the " Female " Norris and Darrow trees

thanks for the reply's but I am really trying to find out if these female only trees will fruit in that part of the country

Hi all this I am asking for a friend, when is the best time to graft trees such as Green Sapote and Macadamia nut Sri Lanka? for those of you that have been shipping recently, how long is the shipping time?                                                                                       Regards   Patrick

In the spring I'd be happy to trade goumi cuttings for So-shang if you are interested in attempting a cocktail tree for cross pollination. This year I grafted "Catherine's Find" Elaeagnus (latifolia? I'm not sure anyone knows what species this is but it sure seems similar to So-shang) onto goumi (multiflora) and it had by far the best take rate of anything I've ever grafted, nearly 100%.

remind me in the spring

Hi All, my So-shang "Elaeagnus Latifolia" is blooming in Spring Valley Ca. right out side san diego this is the second bloom this year and quite heavy so hoping for something, the first bloom was about 2 months ago and a bit light and only on the south side.             For those of you growing these in southern Ca. is this the normal bloom time and caaaaan I expect some fruit soon?                        Regards    Patrick

Hi Joe I graft them with just a cleft graft but I am quite sure that any type of graft that you are comfortable with will work.          Regards    Patrick
