Looking to find a few big red mayhaw trees. Anyone have young shippable trees or rooted air layers? Perhaps even scions? I'm in the FL panhandle and might even be able to pick up trees at a good price. Especially interested in wholesale in quantity(10+ trees perhaps) if possible at the right price and size and do have a tax resale certificate.

Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Anyone interested in bulk Sugarcane and Cassava cuttings?
« on: November 10, 2025, 01:32:25 PM »
I know this is a better suited topic for the veggie part of the forum but I need eyes on it fast. Tonight is supposed to be 28F here and therefore have to cut everything today before everything gets ruined. I'll have bunches of FL red Sugarcane cuttings available. Would like to send them off as quickly as possible after cutting them. I also will have a good amount of two types of cassava cuttings available for quick sale. Not sure what cultivar they are but are good eating varieties. I could likely fill a few medium or large flat rate boxes of either species. Will give a good bulk deal to any interested buyers. Pay the shipping of boxes and we'll negotiate a good price on the cuttings too on top the shipping costs. Any interested parties reach out via pm.

Thanks! DG

Tropical Fruit Discussion / What is this?
« on: April 19, 2025, 09:00:58 AM »
This plant was at a persons house that we delivered plants to yesterday evening. It was sold to her as a strawberry tree(Arbutus unedo) but I don't think that's what it is though I could be wrong. I just bought a few strawberry trees myself from a member here and although young trees they look starkly different than what this lady had. Whatever it is it is thorny and suckered like crazy. She said it once did have fruit on it that looked similar to the fruit of arbutus but due to a heavy wind storm they all blew off before ripening. Cool looking tree nonetheless but want to know what in fact it is so I can tell her what she has. Nothing I've seen before. What y'all think?

A buddy of mine is looking to buy bulk bay leaf trees for his nursery. I myself might be interested as well if the price is right. Is there anyone here or know of anyone that mass produces them for wholesale? Especially anyone in the FL panhandle or otherwise in the state or nearby states. However would consider mail order too.

Thanks for any help! DG

Temperate Fruit Discussion / Grafting questions
« on: March 12, 2025, 08:31:13 AM »
Hello whomever can answer!

I was wondering a few things about grafting things such as plums, pear, and apples, etc. When I graft especially using the cheapo plastic grafting tape not the good buddy tape I generally fully wrap the whole scion and also cover it with something to protect it from light and our day time heat. I've saw a few people recently not covering the entire scion(using real buddy tape) but only wrapping the physical grafted area. So the scion isn't fully wrapped to keep moisture in but still appear to get success. Only generally 2 buds or so above the graft. Maybe that helps not having much to loose moisture? Also not protecting it from sun or heat with something to block it such as a paper bag or aluminum foil etc. Maybe because the whole scion isn't wrapped? Or possibly if fully wrapped or that real buddy tape isn't as bad in those conditions as that plastic film wrapping? What do y'all think about this and what are your personal thoughts?

Thanks! DG

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Anyone know what this fruit is in Northern Florida?
« on: March 12, 2025, 08:20:40 AM »
This is found in Northern Florida in some areas. I'll try to get fresh pics of the flowers soon since they are blooming again but also still holding fruit at the same time. Lightly sweet to the taste. Possibly a blueberry family or viburnum species?

Temperate Fruit Buy, Sell, & Trade / Looking for low chill scions
« on: February 27, 2025, 06:20:33 AM »
Looking for various low chill scions before everything wakes up if it isn't too late already. Will have some cash here shortly.

Apples: Joy, Shell, Reverend Morgan, anything low chill I don't have so let me know what you got, possibly fuji, and granny Smith, pink lady
Pear: southern home, pineapple, moon glow, any low chill make offers
Asian pear: any lowest chill only need like 2 scions total since I only have one plant to graft onto. Preferably 2 varieties
Stone fruits: really anything low chill but would like various pollination compatible apriums/pluots the most. Improved plums, peaches, nectarines, etc wanted too. Have tons of graft space for prunus species. If cherry plum hybrids will graft on peach or wild plum rootstock I'd consider them too. Know true cherries will not though so unsure about hybrids but I assume it's likely.
Persimmons: saijo, chocolate, coffee cake, really any other than standard fuyu or Hachiya.
I'd consider various Mulberry and loquat too.

Tropical Vegetables and Other Edibles - Buy, Sell, & Trade / Thai Lesser and greater galangal ginger rhizomes
« on: January 21, 2025, 08:11:49 AM »
Plenty of rhizomes available for both these types of galangal ginger available. $5 for a good sized piece with a minimum of 2 pieces plus applicable shipping costs. As the names kinda suggest the lesser form is less tall(3ft or so with skinny leaves) and has skinnier long rhizomes and the greater form gets about 6ft tall with wide leaves and has nice thick rhizomes. Both are very ginger type spicy more so than regular culinary ginger and have great medicinal value. Hit me up!

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Inviting north FL and surrounding areas plant sellers/buyers
« on: July 10, 2024, 02:03:43 PM »
Hello North Florida residents and close by neighbors! I just created a new Facebook plant sellers page/group. Inviting y'all to join! If you aren't somewhat local that is OK to advertise if you are capable of shipping to North Florida and nearby areas. The twist of this plant sellers group is that it's strictly edible, medicinal, and useful plants only. Please see rules for greater details. The page/group is called "North FL Edible, Medicinal, and Useful plants and nursery seller's group". The group was just created last night but is already gaining members steadily. Come over there and join up! It's gonna be the new hub for North Florida plant and nursery sellers and buyers connections group for our region. Shameless advertising, "in search of" posts, giveaways, trades, edible and useful plants informational posts, recipes/harvests/medicinal extraction techs are all welcome so long as it's based in the realm of edibles, medicinal, and useful plants. Help us get this group up and running! Please comment here if you joined from this post so I can get an idea of where the traffic is coming from.

Thanks for your help! DG

Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Lychee in Sarasota?
« on: June 12, 2024, 03:34:48 PM »
My dad lives in Sarasota and is looking for a lychee tree. Think he wants a fairly sizable one off to a good start. He would prefer a dwarf type and self fruitful type if that's possible or exists but he would like any if not I would guess. Does anyone have trees available?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Fig freeze back in FL panhandle
« on: June 01, 2024, 02:20:47 PM »
For some unknown reason many figs I've planted in my yard freeze down all growth(even hardened growth) every winter. What's some possibilities for that? Don't think I have major nematode issues in this yard since I don't see root knots on things I've pulled up. Some trees are from cuttings of large healthy local trees that don't do the same where they are. My soil is thick but they aren't in areas that flood badly. Other species not doing the same thing. Any ideas?
