Mike says... A whole lot of fruit types brought in from Latin America and SE Asia in the 1970' and 80's were conidered for commercialisation.The programs lost funding or trials were followed through so not many got established.They are a commercial crop in central america,peru,brazil and colombia.There are several lines in oz and even more poor types. | About the Author Cairns 28th April 2013 6:46am #UserID: 5418 Posts: 1438 View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |

Anonymous says... A loss to us all in being side-lined from production, but glad to hear there are good strains still available if the interest were to be picked up again - hope they don't get "lost" in backyards. I do envy your choices of fruit Mike! Another fruit to add to my must try list. Oneday.... Don't know why, but I've become "Anonymous" instead of "VF". Strange. | About the Author VF 28th April 2013 10:14am #UserID: 6795 Posts: 736 View All VF's Edible Fruit Trees |

VF says... That's interesting Trikus. Would be good to know if we have the highland genes, not just for taste, but we in the sub-tropics could have a real crack at these fruit. John Mc and David, that's really good to hear. I hope you keep us updated with any progress. If I develop more warm, protected pockets, I might have to grovel for some seeds. :) Fine looking Durian Mike, and so white too! Makes it appear creamy. | About the Author VF 28th April 2013 9:11pm #UserID: 6795 Posts: 736 View All VF's Edible Fruit Trees |

Mike says... Trikus the word I have from south America is that good ones are hard to come by.I have been sending some matisia seeds to south America as ours seem to be the better selections.They are in the deep end of the gene pool so there is no founder effect going on. VF it was creamy but it wasn't the pick of the litter.The monthong has been attacked by a triped posum.The gan yeow will be eaten tomorrow.

David says... Long time since this thread was active so here goes. Went to Indooroopilly to do some shopping went to that great fruit shop near coles and spotted Matsia fruits $14.99 a kilo got 2 fruits. In nearly 30yrs living in Brisbane never seen these for sale. Taste wise bit mango and rockmelon, but it had excessive fibre a bit off putting. Good taste though. 3 seeds per fruit. Will try to post pics | About the Author David Springwood 26th March 2018 10:18pm #UserID: 1961 Posts: 670 View All David's Edible Fruit Trees |
