Not sure of the fruit season, but Lara Farms sells the tree and possibly fruit

Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Re: WTB: Inexpensive Jackfruit seedlings ready to graft?
« on: July 03, 2022, 07:50:07 PM »
Also heard about Amber seedlings as well as Berry when I got them a few years ago. Anyone know how the seedlings of Amber and Berry have done in the last few years?

« on: July 03, 2022, 07:46:15 PM »
I have a TM Red and a Crunchy Lemon grafted Jackfruit trees I need to cut way back. The trees have been neglected for far too long.
I do have 5 remaining Berry seedlings I could use, but would rather let those grow out. Any thoughts? Thanks, Ed

Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / WTB: White Sapote tree or scions perhaps.
« on: July 02, 2022, 07:51:02 PM »
Lara Farms had a "Campbell" available last Sunday but it is sold out now till year end. I had a "Bonita Springs" 15 years ago which was delicious, but no more. I have searched but all I can find is Redlands or Younghans. Maybe I should buy "Denzler" or "Redlands", which I know nothing about but are available, in the hopes of obtaining scions to graft my preferred varieties at a later date? Thanks for any input, Ed.

Improved variety that is dwarf above all else. I have a small property, so dark or semidrawf trees that can be more easily controlled are highly preferred.

I have had several shipments very late (lost leaves), and 2 that arrived mangled to the point that in one case just one remaining shoot of the grafted Garnet Cherry remains intact. Also I have been told by another seller that 3 of last 17 shipments to customers were mangled.

I just discovered this fruit. It never seemed appetizing to me as I actually grow sweet potatoes lol. But this Zill variety offered by a nurseryman in Dade County is very desirable, esp. being drawfed. But man is it expensive. Does anyone else have this selection? Thanks Ed

I feel the need to personally and publicly thank Brandon for an info packed 45 minutes at his orchard. The info I gleaned is invaluable.

I have gone back searching prior posts about this plant. I gather there are a number of varieties. Not a fan of sour fruits, so which varieties are the better ones? Appreciate any input and comments. Ed

Recommended by Brandon at cbss_daviefl on the forum. I am at the moment trying to find Cheripu seeds and perhaps other garcinia sp. Never heard of Lindero. I ordered from you many years ago. Please advise if you can be of service. Thanks, Ed Doyle

Trying again. Jim West in Ecuador is apparently no longer taking orders for seeds. Fruitlovers in Hawaii is sold out (as they seem to be sold out of everything almost always lol).
I have one remaining lonely male tree after my 2 females were crushed in the last hurricane. They did not recover. If anyone can purchase said seeds or can offer them, let me know. Seedling plants would work as well of course. Seems hardly anyone grows them. Thanks, Ed

So I need to buy multiple trees to ensure I have both a male and female?

I bought a tree in 2020, but it got a root rot, likely because there was a wound at the base at the graft. Thanks, Ed

I have several young trees. May buy more seeds, but wondering if anyone has older trees available. Also has anyone actually fruited Luc's in Florida yet? I'm not getting any younger lol! Thanks, Ed
