Phil says... Clean the pulp and place them about 1/4 inch deep in seed raising mix. Place the pot in a mini glasshouse or in a plasic bag in a bright spot out of direct sunlight. Seed are polyembryonic so you'll get 4 or 5 shoots from each seed. Takes about three or four weeks to germinate, so keep damp. | About the Author 6th November 2008 10:46am #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |

Nansu says... I have a small Japoticoba Tree. In morning shade, good afternoon light and enening Sun. The tree is quite small, about 4 feet, has minor leaves now in the winter. It is about 5 years old and has developed no fruit. Our winter temperature is 60 - 80 degrees, occasionally drops to the 50's for a day or two. It seems to stay alive, but is not growing. Any suggestions? Tried to send a picture, but was unable to get it attached. Please provide me with information as to how the tree should grow (look like).

Jodie Barr says... Jaboticaba's are very slow growing. I think they like lots of sun. they are a tropical tree and so don't like low temps. I'm northern Australia and it doesn't get lower than 5 degrees centigrade. I have one that has just started fruiting last year and it's somewhere around 10 years old. It could have done better as it has competition from other trees. | About the Author Jodie Barr Australia 9th January 2009 9:52pm #UserID: 1837 Posts: 3 View All Jodie Barr's Edible Fruit Trees |
