Joe.Ventra starts with ... Hi everyone, I'm new to Daleys fruit tree forum. I'm looking to start up a collection of fruit trees and have already ordered a few off Daleys and they have been a great help to me! Was wondering if anyone has any Luc's garcinia available to buy and whether it is true that they are self pollinating? I've seen so much varying information about pollination requirements. Thanks in advance. Joe | About the Author Joe.Ventra Green Valley 25th March 2019 3:16pm #UserID: 19994 Posts: 6 View All Joe.Ventra's Edible Fruit Trees |

Chad says... Mine has grown a few centimeters during that period, it's about 69 cm tall in a 35L pot after 2 years from purchase. I read that someone had success grafting Luc's Garcinia onto imbe. http://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?topic=20954.0 | About the Author Chad1 LAKE ILLAWARRA 1st April 2019 12:48pm #UserID: 12391 Posts: 64 View All Chad1's Edible Fruit Trees |

Waterfall says... I have had two of these growing for a couple of years now and I must say I have never seen anything grow as slowly as this before! I think they grew maybe 1cm in this time, one of them has died now and I think the other will be dead soon too. Life is too short to bother with this fruit tree, in Sydney anyway. | About the Author Waterfall WATERFALL,2233,NSW 4th April 2019 11:21am #UserID: 10026 Posts: 422 View All Waterfall's Edible Fruit Trees |

Joe.Ventra says... I finally got my hands on one. I was searching through ebay and a guy was selling one small one for $30. it's about 30 cm high and looks healthy. the tag on it is from Daleys, so must've been an earlier purchase from here. Fingers crossed one is enough to fruit then , unless I get my hands on another down the track | About the Author Joe.Ventra Green Valley 4th April 2019 2:57pm #UserID: 19994 Posts: 6 View All Joe.Ventra's Edible Fruit Trees |

Markmelb says... I saw a video from the California Rare Fruit Society and a guy there has a Lucs doing multiple flushes a year by moving into a cold area for a couple weeks and then into a warm area will cause flushing - no harm trying as Lucs will take 5c easy but not sure for how long to risk - mines tring to do a second branch flush atm.Early January growth fully hardened now.

Grant says... I have grafted 2 Luc’s scions (from a tree that has had its first fruit so I’m informed from a reliable source) onto my inground Achachas and both have taken. One is pushing its second lot of leaves. Interestingly I also grafted onto seedling Luc’s and they took about 6 weeks later to push, so Achacha looks very promising as rootstock | About the Author Grant Lennox Head 7th April 2019 9:43pm #UserID: 6119 Posts: 156 View All Grant's Edible Fruit Trees |

Amanda says... Hi Markmelb - what are you feeding your tree please? Do you water with tap water and is it decent tap water? I was amazed that our seedling survived our winter in the ground outside here - it pushed to lots of new leaves come summer - but it's struggling with chlorosis (our bore water a bit limey) so it hasn't grown as much and healthy as I would have liked as we head in to it's next winter.... Its only about 15cm tall....poor thing..I am so tempted to rescue it and pot it up again....but I really don't want to start having a potted orchard. (no laughing at my little plant guys! hehe....it has toughed out some temps lower than 5C so deserves a little respect surely? :P )

Amanda says... Handy to know thanks Markmelb - thanks! It's amazing how differently some of these plants respond to rainwater - rather than tap and/or bore isn't it. Very interesting about the heat though - I didn't know that. I actually ended up putting a light shade cloth teepee over ours towards the end of summer - on the afternoon sun side - (just had a feeling) maybe I should have done it sooner. | About the Author Amanda LESCHENAULT,6233,WA 17th May 2019 9:30am #UserID: 16828 Posts: 89 View All Amanda's Edible Fruit Trees |
