Garcinia Nitida Seeds
« on: April 01, 2015, 01:07:15 PM »
I received a couple of Garcinia Nitida seeds from Tradewindfruits, on Saturday after being in transit for over a week. The seeds were in wet Vermiculite? and they had sprouted, they had about half an inch of roots at one end and a quarter inch of shoot at the other end. But they look sort of dried out. Any way I soaked them in water for an hour and then placed them between moist paper towels. Today I will buy some spagnum moss and plant them in it. Can any body tell me will the seeds survive?

I think that seed still looks ok. FYI should have marolo ready to send out in about one week.

Thanks for yr help,Oscar. I am relieved. I will be back in India by 16th May. If I can do any thing for you, please do not hesitate. Is it possible to send seeds to the US? Chandramohan.

Can anyone who has tasted fruit of brunei cherry (G. nitida) comment on the fruit quality/flavor?
