The Tropical Fruit Forum

Your C. Phaea is a bit bigger than mine and has larger leaves, probably mine will get bigger as it gets older like my C. Reitziana (fingers crossed for self sterile for that one as I only have one of that plant). 

The E. Azeda I noticed is a very slow grower as well, what I do like about that one though is it did not seem to mind to be in direct sun unlike some Eugenias.  Speaking only from end of summer heat experience though but seems promising even if it takes us forever to get to fruiting stage lol.

Yea figured it would probably be a waste of time but it looks like a neat palm.  I guess even if it survived here it would probably be rare and marginal like coconut palms and not fruit ever.

There's cacao trees in Animal Crossing.  Also durian in Breath of the Wild.  I am sure there are a ton of other examples.

Striatulum seeds received.  Great seller for sure.  Can't wait to get these seeds popping.

Looks like both of my spots are 10b now.  Here's hoping to 11a in 20 years. 

I had some Frankies Garcinias that were growing at a decent rate, but some rats decided to chew them up so I think thats the end of them.  Macrophylla grows at a pretty decent speed as well, and Madruno not too far behind. These are all generally slow though compared to other genus plants obviously.

No fruits yet but started flowering last year, pic below is how big it was when it started pumping out buds. It’s definitely possible, idk if they’re on the forum but an Instagram friend produced soursop in their apartment in Ukraine

Looks great, how old is your tree? My largest one is almost 2 feet started from seed from Lance back in February. They grow so fast.  I plan on putting in the ground eventually but want to overwinter it for its first winter.

Mine is slightly smaller.  It was actually in full sun here for the end of spring and early summer, then our summer heat picked up and started baking it a little.  I will probably nudge mine back in full sun once our daytime highs drop below 80.

Received the geonoma palm seedlings and other psidiums yesterday, they look fantastic! Thanks again for sharing these little guys with us, A+ seller for sure.

I don't have achacha but I have a Madruno pushing still and de Bico.  Waiting on my Lucs Jumbo to get second set of leaves.  Still new to Garcinias but they seem to push all the time (slowly) except for winter.

I doubt there's a blacklist unless you are out here getting bad boy plants e.g. weed or other drugs type of plants.  USDA confiscated one of my orders from the middle east once and sent me a warning letter but it sounded like no big deal really, just don't keep doing it sort of thing.   I have ordered since then with seed lot permit no issue, but like the above I just stick with domestic sellers to make life easier.

I have a little bag of soursop seeds sprouting right now.  Probably like 20 to 25 in there, a bunch sprouting.  From fresh fruit eaten around June. Anyone interested? I could do $15 for the whole bag + $15 shipping.
