Or get one tree to save space and graft the others onto it. I concur on the royal crimson, very tasty 😋

Hey Kaz nice find, it looks like Garcinia xanthochymus (false mangosteen). I ate a couple a few years ago and if I remember correctly they looked like that, and the flavor was similar to what you’ve described. I enjoyed the fruit, some were sour and some were more balanced with good flavor.
Please save me a couple seeds 😉

Looking For: Tall Tree Pots in and around Orange County I can pick up. Thanks

Fruit punch was one of our favorite mangos this season. Lemon Zest, K3, and PPK were also fantastic.

Good looking out hammer! Thanks so much for posting, now I don’t have to drive 6hrs to try the fruit... Have a great 4th! ✌🏽

Hey Tru how are you (sorry I like rhymes)- The S8/Sugardragon cuttings in the picture I posted are curvy because those ones were growing over our wall and high up on the trellis. When they’re on a trellis they will bend and curve once they start to grow over the top of the trellis. The ones that hang low grow pretty much straight.

I’ve also heard Voodoo Child may be the same as S8/Sugardragon as well, our Voodoo Child vines and fruit look identical to our S8’s.

My recollection is that S8 and voodoo child were part of the genetic testing project from the UCI researchers and found to be different. Flowers were a bit different as well.

Thanks for clarifying John 🤙🏽

Medium flat rate box full of cuttings. 8 pieces total for $25 + $17 shipping (usps medium box flat rate price)

Thanks Kaz means a lot coming from the loquat king! There’s actually a couple really big ones on the tree not in that picture, check this one out, it’s as big or bigger than a golf ball. I’m gonna send a fruit to Abirkett2 since he bought some scions so he can taste the goodness before he grafts.
I think my original scions actually came from you.

If you have an extra tree or scion(s) please pm me. Thank you

Good stuff

Not at $50 per seed I’ve heard of inflation but damn!

They look like cold damage to me.

Cold damage or fertilizer burn are my guesses.

Does anyone know what these spots on the leaves are? They started appearing about a month ago and are getting worse. Thanks for any info.

Looks like Persea mites. Are you keeping your plants under a mature tree? If so that could be the source. My avocados get them and so do the wax myrtle growing under the avocado canopies.

Thanks guys. Cold damage is definitely a possibility, seems like we’ve had more frost than ever this year, not to mention a hail and graupel storm! Crazy. I haven’t Fertilized in awhile but do sometimes pour old fish tank water on the soil after cleaning the tank so maybe too much nitrogen in there. It’s planted out in the open so not sure about the mites, there is milkweed all around it so maybe Persea mites from that, but the spots look different than the persea mite damage I’ve seen on our avocado trees. Hopefully just cold damage.
