Winter 2011: I am not sure what variety these are as again my friend is germinating them from seeds that I collected. You can see in the pic that the sizes are very different. The big one was one of the first of all the seeds we collected to germinate while the other has come up months later. LESSON: be patient!!!

Spring 2011: My friend took one and I took the other. Hopefully between us we can get fruit from one!

Summer 2012: He has been home for a few months now but he is not happy. I think that the weather has just been too cold for him to really get going. The weather is warming up now though so I am hoping that he will get a chance to put on some new growth before winter. I might have to get a glasshouse or bring him into the bathroom to keep him alive over winter if he doesn't get a bit more established.

Planted: 2011

Height 30 Centimetres

Growing: In a Pot

Qty: 1

Pollination: No

Pest Control: Ants love farming scale on them. The tiny leaf curling caterpillars love the new growth and you have to be SO carful not to snap it off when you're trying to get rid of it.

I am a recent convert of the smelly fruit and I do like these trees and the fruits hanging in them are very impressive.

I like the jakfruit as it is different and 'outside the square' - usually visitors to my garden have never seen one and it prompts discussion about fruit trees and gardening in general. In addition it tastes heavenly and is easy to grow and fruits easily with very little care!
