Fast grower, the only problem I've had is with scale.

Hi mate - if you have spare scion woods, can you pls let me know so I can try grafting to my white sapote seedling tree? I am happy to pay for them and perhaps go for a drive down to the South Coast one weekend to collect

Sorry I just saw your comment. If you still need some let me know and forget about paying

Hi Chad1, sorry I don't use this Daley forum website often and just came across your response. Thanks mate for the offer, but it is not urgent and I will try to source some other varieties white sapote scions to graft onto my seedling tree project sometime in the near future. Same, we are based in the same state NSW and so if you are after a particular scion(s) I may have spare, let me know and I can try to assist

White Sapote - Pike (Grafted) ^10/10

Comments: -

This must be the best fruit for taste and climate range and low fruit fly problem for some unknown reason.

Good near a public area because its skin stays green when ripe, and so does not attract as much attention from people who don't know the fruit.

Fruiting Months January, February, March, December

Planted: 2003

Growing: In the Ground

Qty: 1

Fruit Harvest: 20 kilograms per Year

First Fruited: 4 Years from purchase in pot

Sun/Shade: Full Sun

Water Given in: Autumn

Pollination: No

Pest Control: Sulfur crested cockatoos are a big problem many years after planting, they just practice their bite and drop the fruit uneaten but bitten.

Bats eventually find the fruit tree years after planting.

Then they harvest every year.

Organic Status:Organic

Question:

Why a very low fruit fly problem?

How big is your tree grows?

Seems to be a wooly-leaf sapote. The underside of the leaves are furry, unlike my Kampong.

Rainbow White Sapote

Comments: - White Sapote - RainbowCasimiroa edulis There's not a lot of information about the Rainbow variety but the general consensus seems to be that it produces an excellent tasting fruit of good size. Fruiting now so will get to try the fruit first hand shortly. Easy to grow here in Melbourne.

White Sapote - Lemon Gold (Grafted) ^8/10

Comments: - Scary tree because it wants to grow into a giant here. That's interesting because it behaved totally differently 700km north of here. Doesn't have any leaf drop here either. Wishing I had planted it somewhere else now, and had to cut down the second tree next to it because they were taking over. The roots are invasive so don't plant near pipes, walls etc...
Apart from that - it's dead easy to grow in our climate, is not at all fussy about the soil, the water, the winter - or bothered by pests/diseases. The fruit needs to bagged against Mediterranean fruit fly and the parrots and possums...
The fruit is beautiful - texture a bit like avocado and the flavour of lemon meringue pie, to me. Skin can be eaten also. 
Self fertile and a good cross pollinator. If only the fruit were bigger and more numerous.
I have to hack this tree back by 50% every 2-3years.

Sun/Shade: Medium Sun

Pollination: Self Pollination

Fertiliser or Organics Used: Any balanced fruit tree fertiliser I have around.
