Also looking for this. Did some research and this one looks to be more cold tolerant which has been a big barrier to me successfully growing ingas here.

That is part of the reason I am looking for them. They also grow at a slower rate and are a have pink flowers so it should be a more HOA friendly inga to have in front yard landscaping

I did reach out to Oscar to see if he has any available as they are not listed on his website.

Have you asked Kameron (Bellamytrees)? He may have seeds available or can most likely get them if not. Bellamytrees.com

Julian R · « **Reply #6 on:** May 30, 2024, 08:59:12 AM »

Oscar got back with me and said his trees should have fruit in 1-2 months

Fygee · « **Reply #7 on:** May 31, 2024, 02:52:08 PM »

Nice! What's Oscar's contact so I can reach out to him as well?

None available on Bellamytrees but I'll reach out to Kameron as well.

All his contact info is at the bottom of his site: http://www.fruitlovers.com/. I've been emailing him at oscar@fruitlovers.com

Cool, thanks! Wasn't familiar with the site.

I love how extremely Web 1.0 it is. Don't get to see classics like that much these days.

For the seeds specifically, I never ended up making progress with Oscar. He stopped replying to my emails and never added them to his website so I'm guessing they are not something he really wants to put out there

CRiSP · « **Reply #12 on:** August 31, 2024, 05:00:43 PM »

Roger that. Appreciate you. If you hear anything, please
Let me know.

Gkight · « **Reply #13 on:** September 03, 2024, 03:59:23 PM »

I have also been trying to source them, so just commenting in case anyone makes progress. Thanks

Maypop · « **Reply #14 on:** September 03, 2024, 04:22:39 PM »

Same as above, I've been looking for vulpina for a while with no luck. I expected it to be sort of common, but no other plants have been as weirdly difficult to find for me 😓

Gkight · « **Reply #15 on:** September 03, 2024, 05:47:43 PM »

Exactly the same thought, I’ve sent emails to several rare seed companies but Inga in general germinate so fast they never carry any Inga typically. Was hoping to buy some fruit like I did with other species as an easy way to source the seeds. Does anyone have experience rooting Inga from cuttings? I have quite a few edulis and/or spectabilis so I could try to root some of them to test it. I saw Oscar has scions available, but getting scions from Hawaii to NC doesn’t sound like the best method for rooting a cutting.

Reach out to who?

Theme is a relatively famous grower in TX with gigantic trees in pots that she moves around

Fygee · « **Reply #19 on:** September 09, 2024, 12:39:25 PM »

Do you have a link to their Facebook profile?

I bought all of my Inga seeds from Oscar. They came germinated and are all 5+ ft now and growing nicely. Send him a message and see if he has any Inga Vulpina seeds.
