Unfortunately, I do not currently have fresh seeds available. I have small plants, but shipping is only possible within the EU.Hi
Hey guys just wanted to give u a heads up i spent 60 bucks on 9 seeds at farwell fruit farm and not a single one germinated and they dont really care. Also trade winds i had gotten a bunch of seeds i had better luck here but the pdm seeds not a single one germinated and they wont email back. Just wanted to let you guys know so u dont also get burnt. I have gotten plenty of seeds from marcos and close to 100% germination and hundreds of seeds from adam (flying fox fruits) also with close to 100% germination. Take it as you will just figured id give my peeps the warning.Farwell fruit farm is a new business. It surprises me that
Bagassa guianensis addedHi
Thank you, that sounds great! But I am still unsure how it is with shipping seeds from countries outside of the EU into the EU. It seems that if the seeds do not have phyto certificate, they will be sent back?I had big problems importing seeds outside EU
Can one make 10 with 3 seeds each of two varieties and balance 4 from other varietySame here
Thank you for the valuable infosI have 2 df varieties labeled as George and Oung Ong. I can't find any information about them
That's likely George from the late George Emerich who was a prominent CRFG member. It's a white flesh variety, very sweet, but not a Vietnamese variety. I believe it is neither self fertile nor self compatible.
As for Quang Ong variety, it may be QOSF, also known as Quang Ong Self Fertile, which was later renamed as American Beauty. Magenta flesh, self fertile and self pollinating. However, he grows a lot of different varieties.
Hope this helps.
Actually no, those fruits I found in one grocery store ,which has them only this time of the year. Havent seen mameys in other stores anywhere in Bulgaria , I bought five fruits and have 6 seeds to experiment with.15 min max. soaking in 3% hydrogen peroxide You can find it in pharmacies. Lucky you can find such a kind of fruits there. Here i never have seen them in grocery stores
Is this 15 minutes or seconds for the hydrogen peroxide ?
Right now i'm soaking them in water for 2-3 days ,pryor planting .
By George Im guessing they mean George's White. Said to be sweeter than the standard Vietnamese white variety but it does require cross pollination with ankther variety to set fruit. Fruit is around a pound to 1.5lbs. For me it is a slow grower but thats onky my experience.Thanks for the info
Hi, does anyone have any tips for germinating these ?? Thanks. One of the seeds has a slight crack to is ,so it may be starting to ...Hi
Thanks Nice odor in the room!First NDM fruit of the season. A big oneor huge one?

Its always difficult with no flowers or fruit and no supporting information. I will take a wild stab and say tamarillo.Not flowered yet. It seems to originate from Solanaceae family, so your opinion must be right Mike. It is my first plant from this family except tomatoes plants
