Has anyone else get the seeds to germinate yet, progress?

No sign of life anywhere (seeds, cuttings, grafts)

I would be interested in Fredericks.

I don’t know Adam’s story but he hasn’t always scammed people. I have, along with many others, gotten what we ordered from him. It’s unfortunate what’s happened though.

Agree with Nate here that Jonah's tree is the best guabiju, but also of note, the leaves on his tree are wavy and that's unusual. I top worked my seedling guabiju with his scions and they took great with cleft grafts, 100% take rate.

I have a wavy form growing, so cool!

It was in my top 10 three years ago, now it might be outside of that rating since I have so many new seedling trees with sweeter tasting fruits. But this tree is similar to my KT4, KT9, in growth. Very strong growing, will hold the fruits and tree is disease free. Doesn't seem to have any problems with leaf burns or any other loquat disease ever of my trees. Both the KT4 & KT9 have very good tasting fruits but can also make a good rootstock since they are so healthy. I even grafted my new favorite Ester on the tree and the grafts are growing super strong. I might just top work the entire tree to Ester and Khaled and make this tree the monster fruit tree with fruits over 120 grams each, better and bigger than the Peluche fruit.

Right now, half of my top 10 best tasting are my seedling trees, I have 28 seedling trees that have fruits and I have done my taste comparisons. If they don't taste as good or better than my Big Jim, then I top work the tree. The KT4 is as good as the Big Jim fruit. I have it grafted on my multi-grafted Big Jim tree with 90+ varieties. I won't list the top 10 since people have their own taste preference so I don't want to offend anyone.

Anyone who gets offended by someone’s list of favorite varieties needs to get a life.

Is the variety called Estee or Ester? When will you offer that again?

Mostly just a Wolfe or a Bradenton. What types do you have?

Thank you!

I have many types but for trees that I have available for sale:
Vista white
Massida
Novak’s
KT3 Sheri Lynn
Tori

I have good sized grafted Ilama rosada trees from a fruiting mature tree available as well as a 5 gallon cherilata

Pm me

we grow Inga Vera, best Inga I've grown so far and fruits in 3-4 years from seed. I have some large 7 gallons available that will fruit soon.

Can you post some pictures of the leaves, tree and fruit? I have a couple fruiting ingas and they are slightly different from each other. I always thought that I had fueillei and some said vera, but I’m wondering if maybe they might even be a hybrid.

looking for fruited ice cream bean scions...my tree is 5 years old and I have lost patience..lol

I can cut. Pm me

Nice how long has your tree been fruiting!? Mine is flowering this year.

Seems like these are flowering in the middle of winter for me in San Diego area, fruit isn't setting. Has anyone fruited these in S. CA.?

I know someone in El Monte fruiting them
