I'm tempted by the Guabiyu - Myrcianthes Pungens. What kind of temperatures/light have these seedlings endured? I'm in Phoenix, where summers are extra brutal.

Glad to hear! Thank you both for your support!  Stoked to hear you dig the Jabo Sticker TnTrobbie!

And thank you ScottR! I'm hoping to be able to create a solid data base of information about all these plants that hopefully, eventually, will be a community based project!

The seedlings have endured temperatures down to 33*F and done just fine with new growth completely undamaged!  I have two 7 foot tall Guabiju up against S facing walls so they get a ton of reflective heat and seem to be doing particularly great.  Seedlings have been getting mixed light but I've left some in full sun and they don't seem to be slowed down.  I'll be down in Phoenix over the holidays if you want to meet up and save on shipping!

Do you have any Paladensis for sale? I just don’t have luck growing them from seeds lol!
The best time to plant a fruit tree was 20 years ago. The next best time to plant one is now.

I'm wanting to purchase a 1 gal. Guabiju, but I'm worried the shipping isn't working right in the cart? I put in my location (Arizona), but it shows "Sticker Shipping - $1"

But I'm pretty sure a gallon pot weighs more than a sticker.  I don't want you to get screwed over on shipping costs.

Hey, thank you for bringing that to my attention!  Just fixed it. Send me a PM and I'll hit you with a discount code.

Question on the Pouteria lucuma 'Palo'.

What is it's high heat and drier air tolerance? Since it's got more cold tolerance, I'd like to take a whack at growing this in Las Vegas (with appropriate tropical fruit amendments and micro climate).

Truthfully I'm not too sure!  It is found in Peru throughout a few different ecotypes and climates.  I'd imagine you might be able to pull it off but would probably need some shade cloth or some protection for those super hot days you are going to get?

Having lived & travelled in Peru—and currently living in Phoenix, I agree the shade cloth will likely be necessary. The heat itself may not really be an issue. Down here, there are plenty of tropical trees that don't bat an eye at 118 degrees farenheit... but the direct sun can fry their leaves pretty quickly.
