Hey guys.

My abiu tree is nearly done fruiting for the year. It's a solitary tree that's been fruiting reliably for the last 4 years. Around 15ft. I've been selling boxes of fruit during the summer for a few years now. This year I got around 100 lbs of fruit from it.

I'm not the biggest fan of the fruit since it completes with mango season and as I'm planning on selling this house in a year or so I'm putting the tree up for sale. You should have plenty of time to root prune.

I'm asking for $500.




I also have the last batch of grafted trees that looks sized up enough to sell. $50
8 Cherilata
1 Chonox Custard Apple (never fruited so i cant 100% confirm)
1 Tropic Sun
4 Dream
1 KJ Pink (never fruited so i cant 100% confirm)
1 Arka Sahan (never fruited so i cant 100% confirm)

This is the last batch I'm grafting...for a few years





 
I also have a bunch of A.montana roots stock (1gal) $10 and 2 large 1gal Garcinia Acuminata

PM if interested. Local Pickup only

I just picked around 50lbs of abius. I have another 20 lbs on the tree.

Ideally, someone can just buy the lot, but if anyone is interested, please PM me. If you want the whole set I'll work with you on the price
$7/lb if it's just a few lbs.

I can do medium USPS boxes for $75, including shipping. Around 5lbs of fruit
I can't ship to CA

Hey everyone, I started picking a fair bit of mangos this weekend.
I should have enough to start selling starting Monday (5/12).
I'll keep updating this thread as the varieties change.

I've been in the process thinning the collection in anticipation of moving (not far), so this may be my last mango season as a producer for a while.

Over the course of the season I should have Angie, Buxton Spice, CAC, Dupuis, Honey kiss, M-4, Manilita, Neelam, Peach Cobbler, Pickering, Orange Sherbet, Sturrock, Taralay, Zinc
and a more limited quantity of Lemon Zest and Smith.

If there is enough local interest I can probably get some more varieties from other nearby members. (I'll see what I can reasonably handle this year)

Please PM if interested. Local pickup only $4/lb (I'm in the Northwest Broward area, not far from Sawgrass Exp and Sample Rd)
Feel free to text or call as well.

« on: July 12, 2024, 08:32:48 AM »
I don't know much about this annona, I tried looking around.
Does anyone have any information about it or better yet experience with it?

I grafted a few of these earlier this year for fun and they look healthy and unique.

I'm asking $75 a box including shipping.

The other family looks like they only got a hand full

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Sunburn on abiu fruit
« on: June 25, 2023, 07:08:07 PM »
This is the second year I'm getting a large crop in my abiu tree.
I noticed this last year as well but after vertical branch snapped all the fruit that formed exposed to the midday sun had brown scalds on it. Doesn't seem to affect the flavor that much but it misshapes the fruit. I don't scoop it right up to the brown scalds though.


My tree grows very lanky so that doesn't help, anyone else has this problem?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Is this sabara 5, crown 1-3?
« on: April 09, 2023, 01:38:46 PM »
It's been a few years growing this mystery jaboticaba.
Since then Ive has a few forums members who know a lot more than I do on plinias check it out.
I bought this from a forum member and it ended up not being a red. All good though, he told me the original source was pine Island nursery. He must have gotten it around 2015.
I'm leaning to sabara 5 but I can't find much description about the tree.
Some observations I've seen from the tree is that the tree flushes new growth at the same time, leaves start off brown then expand into green and it's very brittle.
What do you guys think?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Candy Corn Mango (and Watermelon Splash Mango)
« on: February 28, 2023, 10:36:06 AM »
Does anyone have any info on Candy Corn mango?
ZHPP says:
"Med Size Fruit, Very Sweet, True Mango Flavor"

Tropical acres farms says:
"Candy Corn was a chance seedling selected by the Zill High-Performance Plants nursery.
It reportedly has an Indochinese-type flavor.
We obtained a Candy Corn tree in 2020 for evaluation in West Palm Beach. Thus far it has grown very slow and compactly, perhaps dwarf-like. It first flowered in 2022 but did not hold onto any fruit. We are optimistic it can produce mature fruit for the first time in 2023."

I'm trying to not get involved with more mangos but I would happily plan something that had a rich classic mango flavor (something like Baileys Marvel)
I have enough Indochinese ones

Concerning Watermelon Splash mango:
I heard a worker from ZHPP mention it in a recent video from fruitful trees, does anyone know the row/column number of this tree or anything about it?

I got a few things ready in these nice shippable 3.5" pots.
I can fit 4 in a medium USPS, shipping is free if you buy 4 plants. Otherwise, it's $15
Edit: sorry I do mention but i can only ship to the states that allow it without any certificate. No CA, AZ, etc


3.5" Pot - Vexator Jaboticaba - $10



3.5" Pot - Red Hybrid Jaboticaba - $15



25
As the title said I'm selling red hybrid and blue (vex.) jaboticaba.
That red are from my tree the blue are from f&s Park.



Heres a typical shot. The reds don't like my city water on their leaves so I plan to pot them up and put them on drip.

I'm selling them in a set of 4 (mix and match) for $50. Shipping included.
Can't ship to CA or other states that don't allow it.
Pm me if interested.

I should have enough to fill a few boxes.
