Ju says... Fruitist, I'm Judy I was wondering about the mamoncillo seedlings you said you have, would you concider selling me one? I live over in Kingaroy Qld. which is about 3hrs drive inland from Brisbane. I'm a pensioner so if it's not too expensive I'd love to grow a plant. I lived for many years in Colombia South America and we ate them all the time there, they are similar to the lychee. It shouldn't be too hard to remove the plant from the pot shake some soil off it and bag it in some wet paper and post it that way... I know a nursery who do that. I'd be so happy to atempt to grow a tree here.. , gets exciting trying these things.. Anyway let me know.. Thankyou

fruitist says... Hi Judy, all my seedlings have roots escaped from pots in soils for about 4 years. They are dioecious. You need male and female although a single tree can bear a few fruits. Is it possible for you to arrange someone to get the seedlings from my place? I will sell a seedling for $20 just for you. Those fruits you ate in Colombia, how thick is the pulp? Is it as sweet as a Lychee. Did you drink Borojoa juice too? | About the Author 8th December 2008 8:51pm #UserID: 0 Posts: View All 's Edible Fruit Trees |

Ju says... Howdie Fruitist, Well I'm still interested, could you sell me two plants since you say you need two to fruit and its for the fruit that I want to try and grow it.. ?? We are going to Brisbane on friday to stay with my son and his girl over in Carindale, coming back to Kingaroy on Monday. Can you give me your address so we can go over and get the two trees. Maybe my son will help me pay for them smile.. big hope!! The fruit is almost identical to the Lychee in the quantity of flesh around the pip. Guess if its had a good supply of water and humidity and a good growing soil etc the fruit will be more fleshy. There are quite a few fruits I remember from colombia that we used to eat which I haven't seen around here. A few years ago at the Ecca there was a stall with a lot of the Colombian type fruit they were grown right up in North Queensland I believe. I would love to try and grow a Plantain cooking banana but haven't seen any anywhere. They are yummy too either cooked when very ripe in slices or green in chunks smashed and fried that way they are crunchy. I don't know what the juice you mentioned is maybe I know it by another name. Anyway look forward to hearing from you.. thanks for answering.. Judy

gordo says... Missed the earlier correspondence following my earlier query. Would love to hear how the trees grow in Kingaroy. (Samford is just North-West of Brisbane. Climate similar to Ipswich.) Thanks for the info on Blue sky bananas, have not eaten platanos for years. I also lived in Colombia Judy, and Venezuela too. Looking to grow yucca root (cassava) and other vegies. Miss those S American flavours. | About the Author Gordo Samford 17th August 2009 2:24pm #UserID: 800 Posts: 8 View All Gordo's Edible Fruit Trees |

Ju says... Howdie, I've got the 2 mamoncillo trees that I bought from Fruitist in Brisbane. I planted them at the front of my place where the would have less chance of frosting and I put a hessian bag surround on them. They have survived winter but we have had continuos drought here and no amount of watering seems to make a difference so they haven't done a lot.. but least they are still going.. one gets a lot of scale on it too.. I'm hoping they will eventually become strong enough to really take off like many of my other young trees have. Yes my sister has a few yucca(casava) plants she had no trouble growing them over in Peachester Qld. I want to grow them here in Kingaroy so see what happens when she remembers to bring me some.. I still haven't got any Plantain banana plants.. the banana nursery's don't seem to sell the Colombian type which I want.They are the real long ones. I lived 20yrs in Colombia near Bogota. You colombian gordo? I want to grow a curuba(banana passionfruit) which make beautiful smoothies. But it seems they now concider them a weed and I can't find any. | About the Author Ju 24th August 2009 10:17am #UserID: 1749 Posts: 14 View All Ju's Edible Fruit Trees |

gordo says... Hi I think Daleys have some banana passionfruit for sale. See forum https://www.daleysfruit.com.au/forum/banana-passionfruit/ Judy, I was born in Venezuela of European parents and lived in Bogota for 6 years. Will try any platanos/plantains I can buy. Good luck with the mamoncillo. I remember a very productive tree in Caracas, Venezuela. We used to climb up and feast on the mamones. I am sure they can take heat and some dry once established, but I doubt they can withstand frost. Look forward to hearing how you get on with your trees. | About the Author Gordo Samford 6th September 2009 3:22pm #UserID: 800 Posts: 8 View All Gordo's Edible Fruit Trees |

Blade says... Hi Ju Sorry for bother you but, I'm from Venezuela and I use to eat Mamoncillos like crazy and is my favorite fruit, I was wondering if you have some fruit to sell from your trees. I live in Brisbane and I can going to Kingaroy just to buy the fruit. Please let me know if you have some fruits and more important if you are selling.

BJ says... From http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/mamoncillo.html Climate The mamoncillo is not strictly tropical, for it ascends up to 3,300 ft (1,000 m) above sea-level in South America. It can stand several degrees of frost in Florida. Nevertheless, it is too tender to fruit in California though it has been planted there on various occasions. It is well adapted to areas of low rainfall. That of Key West ranges from 30 to 50 in (75-125 cm) annually. The tree can tolerate long periods of drought. | About the Author Theposterformerlyknownas Brisbane 14th December 2010 1:47pm #UserID: 3270 Posts: 1552 View All Theposterformerlyknownas's Edible Fruit Trees |

phil@tyalgum says... Ah yes, sorry, it is Sunday. I bought a "Cuban fibreless" variety there for about 18 bucks, there are two fruit tree sellers there and they often have them. The best place to find the fruit is in an Asian market, possiby in Brisbane if there is such a thing. The markets in the Vietnamese areas of Melbourne had them in abundance when they were in season. Forbidden fruits in Mullumbimby stock trees and there is a fellow in Crystal Creek, near Murwillumbah, who has them as well if you'd like details. | About the Author TyalgumPhil Murwillumbah 19th January 2014 9:17am #UserID: 960 Posts: 1376 View All TyalgumPhil's Edible Fruit Trees |

Mike Tr says... Everything is Cuban fibreless in Australia but there is an abundance if fibre.I obtained morado,Brazilian Lisa and a new type best called arusha.I planted the lisa and arusha and they are about 40cm high now. Only one farm I know grows them commercially and sends the pulp to Sydney so I think there is not much about.Daily consumption of large amounts or eating seeds (such as in Gaudelaupe) can increase the likelihood of early Parkinson like symptoms. | About the Author Mike Tr Cairns 19th January 2014 9:54am #UserID: 8322 Posts: 614 View All Mike Tr's Edible Fruit Trees |

There are very few descendants of the whitman fibreless and cuban fibreless seems to be a name bandied around for all the rest.I almost forgot that there are a couple of central american trees on one farm as well.It is clear that we have little genetic diversity.Trikus how have you confirmed the identity of CF? | About the Author Mike Tr Cairns 20th January 2014 9:18am #UserID: 8322 Posts: 614 View All Mike Tr's Edible Fruit Trees |

BJ says... Miss Moussi, Tropical Fruit World should have some in their fruit stall. Give them a call to check, but you'd have to be unlucky not get get some this time of year.

phil@tyalgum says... Karen if you're coming to Tropical Fruit World, you should call in and see Ron McMahon at Crystal Creek. He has all his own grafted plants and sells them for 12 - 15 bucks, he'll talk to you for an hour even if you don't buy anything. A good place to stock up. He's near the old church in Crystal Creek, 981 Numinbah Rd. I bought a soursop there as a gift a while back. At Bangalow there is a guy who is up near the back area, around the food stalls who sells fruit trees out of his van, plus a big variety of Forbidden Fruits near the main entrance. | About the Author TyalgumPhil Murwillumbah 21st January 2014 11:00pm #UserID: 960 Posts: 1376 View All TyalgumPhil's Edible Fruit Trees |

MissMousi says... Hi guys My Mamoncillos search has been unsuccessful :( but right now I have a sort of "ecstasy" eating Guanabana (soursop) I will share this experience in the soursop forum because this is mamoncillos's, But I have to thank everyone especially BJ and Phil. Phil, you were right, Ron McMahon is a lovely person, a "crazy scientist"!!, Has been in 40 countries and mamoncillo is a fruit that has unfortunately escaped him. I'm really enjoying my "acquisition" I hope to find in the near future my "cherished mamoncillos", so I'll have my "fruit dream" come true ;) P.D: anyway I want to share with a photo, the reason for my joy.

Some South American seeds have made it over the green curtain in spite of customs and Daff pocketing a lot.I got a few Talisia recently that are close mamoncillo relatives.

GoneTroppo1 says... I've seen this forum for quite a while and was at Paddy's markets a few weeks ago and picked up some Spanish limes (Quinepa, Mamoncillo's) from one store there that had a few left. I've planted the seeds from the 10 fruit I had and have 8 that have popped up. Just wondering if anyone has had success with these fruiting in Sydney (Berowra). As we don't get frost and I grow Longans, Lychees, Mango's, Red Flesh Dragon Fruit and a few other different varieties of the more hard to get fruit here. All fruit seems to grow pretty well with my custom mix of 10:10:10 NPK solution and would love some feedback as to what I need to be careful of when growing these Mamoncillo's? Thanks for any feedback. Cheers Paul

JohnMc1 says... Yes, same, I've been losing parcels more often lately. They're saying "not packed appropriately". With the Aussie $ the way it is lately it hurts just that little bit more. They are offering a choice of returning the package back to the sender for $95, or destroying the seeds for free. I take it that you only need a small amount of unknown substance on one seed in your pack and they condemn the whole shipment. | About the Author JohnMc1 Warnervale NSW 15th February 2015 10:06pm #UserID: 2743 Posts: 2043 View All JohnMc1's Edible Fruit Trees |

Fruitylicious1 says... Hi Missmousi I found a very good video tutorial on you tube about propagating Spanish lime by seeds. It's not rocket science. Anyone can easily follow the simple directions. Just scour the web and I'm pretty sure you'll find one too. It's fun learning it. Next time you don't need to ask anyone about sowing mamoncillo seeds for help. Independence is a very liberating experience.

David says... Hi Shay,First hi and where did you get the good fortune to aquire these plants. They are not very common and from what I can gather they are either sweet or sour .plus you need male and female trees. Apparently there are hermaphrodite trees around but usually you need at least 3 to have enough chance for pollination. Next question the price.

Shay says... I was lucky to get some Spanish Lime seeds as well as Tamarind and Cashew seeds. I planted them all and had around 20 Tamarind trees, gave most of them away, I now have five at home, three Spanish limes and three Cashew plants. Keeping my fingers crossed the Spanish limes will make it through to spring this year...they can be pretty fragile when young. | About the Author Shay Sunshine Coast 24th July 2018 11:43am #UserID: 18730 Posts: 1 View All Shay's Edible Fruit Trees |

Rhinoman says... I've been looking for these (either the fruit or the trees) in Australia for many years now with no success. I've just returned from a trip home (to Texas USA) where I managed to find the fruit, and was very disappointed in the quality. They were small and with very little pulp (mostly seed) - not like the plump juicy ones I was used to growing up in Venezuela. Still very interested if anybody can find them here though. | About the Author Rhinoman Clayfield 4011 Queensland Queensland 29th July 2022 10:27am #UserID: 30677 Posts: 1 View All Rhinoman's Edible Fruit Trees |

MissMousi says... Hi Rhinoman, same here!!! I've been looking for mamoncillos' trees for so many years now. There were a couple of persons with small trees in Byron Bay but growth was not successful. I hear the fruit exist also in Thailand (it surprised me as I thought it was only found in S.America) but I'm not sure, could not find anything related to this and no idea, if true, whats the name of the fruit in Thailand. Anyway, hope one day have this magnificent fruit here in Aus. | About the Author MissMousi GOLD COAST,4211,QLD 30th July 2022 9:54am #UserID: 4651 Posts: 14 View All MissMousi's Edible Fruit Trees |
