I’m so happy to have found your channel !! We moved here from California and trying to find fruit trees that do well here. I’m Vietnamese, so these are the fruits that I’m really familiar to. Thank you so much.
Your place looks very well kept and you have a healthy collection. I’m a Hawaii grower with many types of sapodilla, jackfruit, durian… thanks for sharing.
Moved to Brazil about 2 years ago and just moved to an apartment with a balcony. Started experimenting with the some of the plants you mentioned. Thx for the information and the great video!
The taiwan tiger is a phitanthra hybid of some sort, the phitanthras i have do tend to be have an upright growth habit. I have a few of these ones from taiwan, giant red crystal, red lantern and a giant red diamond that is just putting out its first buds. Jaboticabas are an addictive rabbit hole!
You know how to take care the plants and maybe good soil too. I have Indian Jujubee 10-12 years ago but later I gave to my friend. They grow in Cambodia. Thank you for your video plus à love to plant fruit trees.
I'm really interested to see how your trees go in winter. I'm in a colder part of australia and I LOVE to germinate tropical seeds, but I can't plant any in the ground, I have been looking into getting a white sapote though, because I reckon that's one I might be able to get away with.
We have that Chico sspodilla or Chico ponderosa is really taste good . My dad planted in our backyard in the Philippines. Star apple we gave that also even the cacao smazing
Your yard puts mine to shame. I will be making tree rings, like you have, this winter. I will be filling them with beets and lettuce for a really cool look. In the winter, I draped incandescent Christmas lights on my citrus and covered with cloth and black trash bags to protect them from the frost. Now that they are three seasons in the ground I won't have to do that unless it gets in the teens, but they are so big now. You inspire me to take more time with my trees.
Thank you! Keep your head up - every garden has its own uniqueness and something to appreciate about it. It's definitely a crazy hobby that we partake in when we protect so many of our trees in both the summer and winter!
Sure I will. In the meantime you can check out this video about how I frost protected my lychee last year with frost cloth: th-cam.com/video/sfDG-Xq1Du4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=BsrCMsghePhxcYmK
It depends so much on your local environment and the exact conditions you've seen the past few winters. If you're not sure, leave a thermometer outside where you want to plant trees this winter that tracks temperatures, and see what the lowest you see is. If it's below 30F you will have to protect your trees with a heat source (the cacao tree will need heat at 45F). Hope this helps.
Where did you get the Taiwan tiger? I'm guessing that one was mail order. What variety of cacao do you have? Surprisingly, there are lots of great tropical fruit tree nurseries in the east valley. Tropica Mango is actually in Apache Junction. Have you tried Arizona Fruit Trees or Jungle Nursery in Mesa? Queen Creek Tropicals? You can usually find something unique at each of them.
I got it from GreenDreamsFL (mail order). Not sure on the cacao variety because it was not listed - perhaps it is a seedling. Those nurseries you listed are also great options!
Do not believe online info. It maybe so in native region but plants always try to live and thrive when they are treated well. In Taiwan, more and more gardeners grow cacao and able to fruit in pots and in ground even in zone 9. Over winter either way has no problem! So with durian and Jackfruit are getting common in south of Taiwan although they are with small quantities. I am in Canada 6a, but no problem grow zone 7 plants outdoors, just need simple shelter to protect them from the cold wind and freezing rains, etc. My kale, cabbage, radish, carrots, coriander, few varieties of potatoes, few varieties of lettuce they all can live through zone 6 winter outdoors in the ground without any protection. I started with large amount of seeds then cold hardier lived and seeded, the new generation becoming cold hardier and hardier this way naturally.

Welcome!! Asian fruits are the best!
That cacao looks great. Love the foliage. White sapote is the most overlooked fruit. Definitely worth growing!
Yo Karen Michelle is one of my favorites also by the way. I like it so much I have like 10 trees of it lol

You're gardening in paradise! That would be my dream. Thank you for commenting.
The cacao has surprised me, it seems to be quite tough! This has motivated me to plant my own cacao trees in my orchard. Thank you
I think with plants like this I go into it expecting it to die, so I'm not disappointed if it does - but am super happy if it lives!
Good plantation😊

Thank you so much. Now that I'm running out of room in my yard, I may have to do more potted plant videos in the future!
Nice😊😊😊😊😊😊

Very helpful - thank you! Also, I too am now addicted :)
I like what you have growing in your yard. Where did you get your Taiwan tiger jaboticaba

Thank you for being here.
You have an amazing garden! Watching from Lusaka, Zambia 🇿🇲
Thanks for visiting. I hope to visit Zambia someday.
I can't believe your garden looks so lush in Arizona and that you got tropical fruits. I bet your water bill is super high.
Thanks. It is higher than most, but my yard is my main hobby, and that hobby is less expensive than most other hobbies. It's all about perspective.

That's great, I can't wait until mine fruits.

Can you do a video when you have on frost cloth on thanks

I've been wondering if a cacao tree will grow in az and now I know it does
At least through the summer - it will need lots of protection from our cold winters (a heat source).
Is Tucson or Oro Valley too cold for these fruit trees? Thank you
It depends so much on your local environment and the exact conditions you've seen the past few winters.

Where do you buy most of your fruit trees?
Go to 15:50 of this video, or look in the description. I have several places listed.
Where did you get the Taiwan tiger? I'm guessing that one was mail order. What variety of cacao do you have?

Nice fruit trees yo if you ever can't find anything let me know and I'll graft you one and send it to you
I really appreciate that - thank you!!
Please grow it in a container
the day people will sue me for filming them in public place that will be the day.
what
Sorry, but the Cacao has zero chance of survival in the ground in 9B.
As a gardener who loves a challenge, I appreciate your words of inspiration!
