Do you have any more of the Eugenia Burkartiana seeds listed above? Great selection this week!
What's your opinion on best tasting eugenia for growing outdoors here in Naples/ south fl?
Great selection. What is the secret with getting that beach sugar apple a good size? Some of you guys are wizards. Mine is basically doing nothing here in California.
as a broke college student there's no way in hell I'm gonna win it, but that pouteria torta var gallifructa looks beautiful! I want some of those as seeds SO badly. wow
Luma apiculata “Arrayan”Myrtaceae. Highly ornamental evergreen shrub or tree, from 5–30’+. Smooth red and brown mottled bark, dark green leaves and fragrant white flowers. 1/2″ edible black berries, sweet with a slight aromatic aftertone. Native to Chile and southwest Argentina. Extremely generous with blossoms and fruit. The fruit is traditionally eaten fresh and made into a chicha, we find it makes an excellent preserve or cordial. Sun to part shade. Drought tolerant when established, but does best with regular irrigation. Z8a–b
