Dada used get seed of Duguetia Lepidota Yara Yara in Venezuela rarely but  he has disappeared.Vitor had some very very rare huge fruited Duguetia from Brazil but i was new then did not get a chance to acquire any before he disappeared.
Vitor https://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?action=profile;u=2102

yeah, what happened to vitor?  He had some crazy stuff.

i wonder if it doesn't need cold set since hawaii doesnt' get the temps you'd get. my uncle has a nice lousy persimmon that produces only sour fruits.  would be nice to graft something better on his tree.

What is a TOPAZ pitangatuba?

last batch of Pohakulani durian seeds

My last batch of seeds arrived in great shape, and now I want to try maprang/marian-plum again since mine always die.  I'm going to try a bunch of different soil types and see if that makes a difference.

humidity i think is important.

how big are you hoping to get?

Nice selection! I'm eyeing the dwarf orange pitanga...

so you're the SOB that has the higher bid now, huh?!

Fruiting Orange Crush in PR?
Check it : Established PR seller selling for 1/2 of you without the 10 day wait and new seller unknowns.

i will be honest, with my current job, i don't have the ability to just shoot down to the USDA station like my old job and get stuff inspected. 

Hopefully you will build your reputation and buyers will understand that it may take time to get their stuff. 

I am fortunate enough with the people that buy from me that if need be due to schedule or the length it takes me to prep seeds/plants I can push out delivery at over a week/two weeks.  Trust will be key. 

Good luck to you. 

I just put eyes on the mother tree. she is beautiful. hiding in plain sight.
It must be good when the people in the middle charging double the farmers market price , which fluctuates like the durian stock exchange.

Honestly, i was surprised had this many. but alva folks when fertilize it so it's a bumper crop.  i was lucky to get what i got since everyone that knows goes and get what they can.

on a side note, you should look at oahu prices.  i think the demand will only go up.  once you get your farm pumping out its own durians, i hope you can look to shipping to oahu.  we're at minimum $13/15/lb.  Frankies good ones are going for $25/lb last year.

And FYI, what most people think of as mango seeds are really seed pods.  Don't bring those.

But what if you cut off the "pod" and clean the seeds/embryos inside? Seems like that should be ok?

yes.  but to be honest, unless your friend is a plant fiend, this is kind of a lot of stuff for them to do while on vacation.
