Check on ebay periodically. I picked some up from a seller in Cairns a little while back. Seems to be sold later in the summer.

I have sprouted a few and passed them on. Cupuassu come in different varieties with different flower colours. Theobroma sp. San Lorenzo is similar and better.

I have none as I gave them away.They are just too hard to get and have low germination rates.None are fruiting in Oz as far as I know.Lower hanging fruit might be more attractive.

I'm not so sure and I have offloaded them to Peter and I don't think Mr Carle has them fruiting but I could be wrong.The picture there is of a T.bicolor by the way not capuassu.

I am desperately trying to locate seed supplier for Theobroma Grandiflorum - Cupuacu in Australia. Tried overseas but were unviable by the time they arrived. Can anyone assist please?

Very short viability period and demanding tropical requirements would make this almost impossible for you to grow Bones . Ideally a whole fruit shipped express might work but I doubt if that would be allowed into WA .

The mucous seed coat when lightly dried on the seed extends viability period.In the right packing material they last a few months.

Anyone have Theobroma Grandiflorum seeds or trees for sale. I think they would grow well in central Florida.

A grower in Hawaii often has them and sells on ebay .. you would do better trying growers in habitat or in Central America than way over here in Australia
