jo says... No problem; I will also send you the seeds for the green variety as I have both (all for free). Please let me know how to mail them to you when the seeds are ready ( I will make sure I do not nib off the top shoots to prevent them turning into seeds). They are Okinawa Spinach as seen from the website I just googled. I got them from a friend in Brisbane. Her friend got them from friend in Taiwan and the Taiwanese got them from the Japanese residents there! cheerio.

Mike says... I believe you can bring in duku and chempadek seeds just google aqis icon and put in the genera and seeds for sowing.Lansium domesticum is probably a composite of four close 'hybridisable' species and all of the domestic ones have seeds that are like mangosteens being nucellic inclusions.Malaysia alone has at least 50 CVs.Grafted ones take 7-10 years to fruit and perhaps double that for seedlings.Long kong are the most esteemed with duku-langsat,some duku and a couple of langsats very good.Kokasans and sour langsat are pretty ordinary.Excellent duku,longkong and chempadek are already in Australia. | About the Author Cairns 28th January 2012 8:01pm #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |

Mike says... I suppose that was the gotz or grays and they don't sell the trees.Limberlost don't sell them very often and it is not usually top quality ones they have of those two.Since the 2 cyclones it is really nobody selling them I suppose.Where is Kingsford and is it there you were hoping to grow them in? | About the Author Cairns 28th January 2012 8:51pm #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |
jo says... Hi Mike and Phil, I think these plants take ages to grow and fruit and I am deleting them from my wish list. (better be "down to earth"). Kingsford is in NSW (near the City) and I think the weather here is ok for tropical plants, although some plants need protection from the cold in winter (papaya trees need to be covered with plastic sheeting in winter). | About the Author kingsford, nsw 28th January 2012 8:58pm #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |

jo says... Hi Mike, That was nice of you; thanks for that. I dont think I will plant chempedak or duku or even durians as these take a long time to grow/fruit from seeds. By the way, if you would like the seeds of the Okinawa Spinach, I will send them to you when the plants start to grow them. please let me have your email in order to contact you for your mailing address. So you grow Chempedaks? Your weather must be more suited to it. Back in Borneo, they grow wild in the jungles because there are monkeys everywhere and they "sow" the seeds after consuming the fruits, etc. My relatives' land (untouched )has lots of them. cheerio Jo | About the Author kingsford, nsw 29th January 2012 5:32am #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |

Rev says... Yes forget seeds I'm not even sure they are viable Just stick a piece in the ground It's amazing finding out the origin of your plants in a personal way! So those Japanese that sent a plant to Taiwan Who gave plants to people in Brisbane That somehow got plants to northey st city farm Who sold Me a tiny cutting That i nursed carefully And took to north qld , where it's been spread around the atherton tablelands homesteaders And given to aboriginal gardeners at yarrabah And now it's been planted in a small village in the bali highlands.. Plot that on a map. Isn't it amazing! | About the Author Rev Jakarta, Indonesia 11th March 2012 7:23am #UserID: 1806 Posts: 359 View All Rev 's Edible Fruit Trees |
coolbreeze says... Hey all, That really IS amazing Rev. Six years later and it is everywhere now. I don't think anybody would have much trouble finding it nowadays. I cut it back monthly or whenever needed to stop overgrowth. Also to keep the shoots nice and tender for eating. I'm sure if all traced back far enough, somehow, someway they would all have come from the same origins. | About the Author coolbreeze Riverhills 1st February 2018 8:39pm #UserID: 17782 Posts: 25 View All coolbreeze's Edible Fruit Trees |
