Looking for Ilama scions
« on: September 03, 2025, 02:57:40 AM »
I'm hoping to get a couple of Ilama scions, preferably of the white (coconut/pineapple flavor) and maybe also a red or pink type. In SoCal, happy to pick up or get via mail, trade or buy. Thanks!

I am going to chop up my seedlings in Spring for scion wood. No idea fruit quality, but they were seeded from pink / red only.

The best time of year is early Spring. I have both ready cherimoya rootstock AND budwood and I am waiting. Did want to mention I did eat the ilama the seeds came from, were all top tier pink or red flesh, when on a trip to El Salvador.
