About My Edible Backyard

Why Sev Love's Edible Plants

I'm a horticulturist, hobbyst.  I'm interested in growing tropical fruit trees, specially Mangos.  I recently bought an acre which I'm using for planting a santuary of different cultivars of tropical fruits, and in which I will possible get retired in the future.  I'm always interested in growing and propagating rare fruits but not for commercial use so far.  Just to share with family and friends.  I"m in the early fiftees now.  We have a very alkaline soil in this area of the country, and a lot of rain most of the year.  My biggest challange is to be able to have a small business that could offer rare fruits and specialities not available in stores. 

I grow Mango, Bananas, Sapodillas, Mamey, Sugar Apple, Sour Apple, Cherimoya (Custard Apple), Attemoya, Avocados, Citrus, Guavas, White Zapote, Grosellas, Averrua Bilimbis, Tomatoes, Spondias, Lychis, Longan,Carambola, etc
