The Tropical Fruit Forum

The golden at FFF is not golden malay but may have it in there as a parent. None are standards they have along their driveway. Botanic Ark big fruited one also has a big nut centre. They look way bigger than any regular coconut.

Fruitorestfarm has a range of hybrids obtained from a New Britain research station. The botanic ark has a big fruiting kind and unusual dwarfs.

Im looking for a seedless macadamia so you and I have similar chances I think.

Thera is correct of course. Mick did you find some late season ones in Rust's?

BTW There are selections of candolleana and big fruited selection seem to have tastier fruit.Go back to the start of this forum and have a look at what people were advocating as great Eugenias. I had to grow stuff to find out if they were good or not.

Plenty of red starapples around and yes nothing like abiu. The pictured tree is clearly not an abiu but a starapple or near relative.

I have landed. I have shown pics of these a few times and they are irregular and never have the skirt/crown at the top that is regular. Newer selections tend to be less irregular in am elephant man kinda way but they have a little grit near the skin. You'd hoch AP  and gefner up in horror after trying one of these.
The one in the pic on its own looks like it but the group of them lower dont quite conform. So far as taste goes onlu a few of its descendants can match it in the Annona world, according to local Annona researchers and breeders. When crossed with AP and with cherimoya (eg Fino...) the offspring are diminished. I digress sorry..... In the last pic it almost looks like an AP X mammoth but if its nearly seedless, a little grit near the skin, has hollow empty seeds and a way better taste than AP or gefner it probably is a selection of mammoth.Not many bear fruit of the impressive size reported pre say WW1 these days.

The pequi, gustavea and macapuno are some of the big guns on your list. The yellow,red and black sicanas are a bit different from each other. The yellow and orange grumis are the same with orange just being a selection.

Erdon Lee and San Su Lin with perhaps baitying should be sought if you can get them.

Big fruited yellow and orange grumis are the best of that species but are still nowhere near as good as say lutescens

There is a tree is Mossman with fruit of lesser quality but a tree near Gordonvale is much better and seed was brought to Cairns from Fiji.

Some odd answers here. The best unifloras, yellow grumis, dysentaria, candolleana, pyriformis x lutesens pitomba, lutescens, multicostata, sweet form of patrisii are some near the fron of the quality line. We could double the list but some mentioned are not in the same league

Fibrosum often has fruit floating in creeks in the Daintree area where it grows streamside, Cormiflorum is terrible to eat by the way. This species grows easily and fruits in around 4 years. Full sun or full shade is fine. What an attractive small tree it is.
