I am also interested in growing this eventually. If I recall correctly, someone in another thread mentioned this website https://reallygoodplants.com/. Looks like they are out of stock till fall, might want to check back later.

Thanks Hammer! Left them an email.

...still on the search

Interested. Please let us know. A superfood.

Thank you Adam, sent them a message.

Think I found a source for small trees, hoping I can find something larger.

I tried messaging and was told that I need to be growing commercial to have any access to the trees.

What source do you have for the small trees? I'm looking to find one as well.

Might order some trees from overseas, and would need to sell a few if so. Hoping can find other options, but let me know if you would be interested in buying a tree. Would help my decision if there is interest, especially locally here in SoFL.

Put me down for three. There are 3 different colors on fruit from individual plants. I need one of each.....Actuallly, I’ll settle for what you get. Let’s hope they’re healthy.

How much do you think the trees would be?

I tried repeatedly to germinate the (supposedly fresh) seeds...cold stratification, various parts per million and micromolar presoak solutions of GA3 (some with GA4 & GA7) to overcome dormancy. Tried this on many groups of both mechanically scarified and whole seeds. I got nothing. **Every time I type "scarified" autocorrect changes it to "sacrifices"... I think my autocorrect is trying to tell me something. HAHa

Definitely down to buy 2 or 3 Myrica rubra trees as long as the price is not astronomical. I know other people stateside must have them. Do you know if they will they be clones, grafted, or good luck male OR female seedlings?

[Jabba The Hutt]

Mark me down as interested in the trees roblack! Same questions bonsaibeast and Paraponera have.

Rob:
I'd be interested in 2-3 as well depending on final cost. I'm in Broward.

Nothing solid yet, but price would be high if anything happens.

[FLnative]

Put me on the list please.

[Paraponera]

Depends on how high. Let me know...I'm in as long as we're not talking rare Myrtaceae seeds on ebay high.

[nattyfroootz]

I'm interested as well.

But on a cautionary note; CRFG got a bunch of bare root trees, legally shipped out like 10 or so years ago and to my knowledge most of them died in transit.

I would also be interested. I find it strange that this is not more available in the USA. There are commercial growers in California. David Fairchild brought these into Florida 100 years ago. I have seen forum member's posts here with trees. I am finding similar with Garcinias where the only sources seem to be out of country and I arrange to get seeds shipped.  Then I find a video of someone in South Florida with fruiting trees.  Sourcing tropical fruit trees and seeds other than mango can be very frustrating.
