The Tropical Fruit Forum

Matt's giant huh? Very interesting. 7 or 9 years ago I posted some pix of Mossman and Flying Saucer black sapotes and they ratchet the jumbo thing up to a place that is surprising. You cant use fruit that big.

This is what I was thinking. I am going to dig up the picture of the Matt's I have saved from someone else. I have a Maher here right now that seems to be around the same size. I had heard stories of the fruit getting to be the size of dinner plate but the two pictures I have seen are not even close. My friends topwork and my Matt's is flowering now so hopefully I'll have fruit next year and maybe there are some real whoppers in the mix.

So many people talk down on this fruit but I love it. I think it has a good flavor and also comes into bearing when there aren't a whole lot of other fruits around.

It is a good size fruit but I remember the monsters that you posted in Australia.

Thanks for posting Julie! Did you notice any taste differences between the fruit?

Good price for seed and a pretty easy tree to grow. They seem to graft pretty easily in my experience. I didn't mean to hijack your thread. 

Zoli is a great seller. I have had good germination with my multiple purchases from him. Nice sterile packaging and he is a knowledgeable collector and I have been lucky enough to hang out with him a few times searching, collecting and eating different places.

Just wanted to give him a bump.

These are really good. They remind me of apricots. I think this is a better strain then some others since I have tasted bad ones and other people have bad taste reports. I have branches from another tree from the same seed batch grafted onto this and they taste the same so they should be similar high quality.

I wish I could visit this show
How far is this from miami is this an annual show?

It is about 4 hours from Miami probably. We skipped last year due to covid but it has been every year before for over 30! It switched to an outdoor venue this year.

Manatree Rare Fruit Council sale Sunday May 16th. It is at a new outdoor location.

Many people. Keep trying.

Thank you everyone for the feedback.  I still have some Restinga seed for sale. I sold out of the Grimals.

I think the settings changed at some point. I tried to revive some old sales posts and ended up making new ones.

Sorry to post this here but I've reached out to three admins and can't seem to reach anyone (blocked by FFF?).

I'm trying to open my nursery thread's original post to post as required by the forum rules, although my initial post is locked.  Can any admins help me out?
