The Tropical Fruit Forum

Aquagem offers some rare stuff but just wondering if some is legit. I’ve bought something they called dominican red star fruit which is growing good but to soon to tell if it came true to seed. Also bought a dwarf kwai muk which I still swear is a jackfruit seedling but they said they definitely sent me the right tree

Interested in this Passiflora arborea that grows into a tree? Any info on fruit taste?

I got these cuttings from a local guy who grew it from seed. It makes red fruit and he thought it was red hybrid but I’m thinking it’s maybe a phitrantha? Big leafs that are fuzzy underneath and also the newer growth of stems is fuzzy. He says he thinks his Sabara fruit taste better.

I have some large Sabaras that are not yet fruiting. Maybe 1 or 2 more years. I would love to graft scarlet scions or any more rare types onto them. Would be very happy to find peluda do mucuri “doctors jaboticaba”. It’s my birthday tomorrow and I want to buy myself present haha

I’m in West Hollywood and was really hoping to find a ice cream bean tree. I’m from San Francisco Bay Area and my ice cream bean tree died this past winter and I’m really hoping to try the fruit and grow new trees from the seeds. I heard there’s one at sea world San Diego but that is too far

I know the fruit has tons of seeds so please spare me some! I will pay or also have things for trade. Somebody please! 

So I see 1 gallon size trees for sale all the time and I do have some but I’d really love to buy a 3 gallon size tree

I ordered these online “eBay” as Ross sapote. They tasted the same as the canistels I’ve ate. Maybe they were not ripened properly? The photos I see only the fruits are more flat than rounded like these. Maybe not the true form? I know Ross sapote is supposed to be sub species of canistel or possibly just a variety?

So I got sold Annona Reticulata on eBay from Florida seller and I’ve been growing it out thinking that but now I realize it’s pond apple it’s been so long since I bought it I don’t know if the seller will respond. Can somebody please make up for it and sell me a nice Reticulata tree

So my grandma planted some feijoa trees on the property 50 years ago and I’ve lived here 25 years and only have taken care of it the past 5 years. Did not produce fruit for a very long time or at least I don’t remember because squirrels do eat them. But to the point is my grandma and dad both swear it use to produce pink guavas. I never believed these were graft compatible but it’s just been a mystery. Could the graft have died off years ago? They are both in Myrtaceae but I’ve heard only similar flower types can be grafted? Is that true?

Anybody fruiting this? I’m looking forward to updates on people’s trees

I got sold this on eBay as Annona retulata but now I’m thinking it looks more like pond Apple? I do remember it looking more like reticulata leaves and after it lost its leaves and grew back they look like this. I grafted a branch of it onto cherimoya seedling and it took.
