That awkward moment when he doesn't know you use human manure 😂
I'm on a very dry sand-ridge so my ground water is probably found far below the surface. Irrigation would probably thus need to be regularly applied in area. The soil seems to be 90% sand. My neighbor's 93 year-old house even has a basement under it, which I hear isn't common, at least not in the Southern half of FL.
I wish fruit could be shipped to California
Thank you 🙏🏼 love your videos
Those are beautiful trees 😍
Thanks for the content. I learned so much. God Bless!
when i used to lived in Mexico i used to eat zapotes from the tree it is so good but i lived in the usa and can't taste the fruit that i was raised with.
I got a baby mamey tree, pace, from lara farms. I live in arizona where it gets up 110 degrees and low 30s. I like to Plat it in about a year in ground but not aure what to do for thr hot summers and colder winter
Vary vary nice .
I love Sapote
Thanks!
Thank you so much Debby
I found one of these trees in Central Florida
@Fruitful Trees, how close do you have mamey to your house, Lara Farms , Julian has one next to the house?
Hi. I have a Mamey sapote key west tree that I had installed last year. The leaves still look horrible. Yellow and brown leaves , no new growth. What do I do , it was expensive
Can a mature tree be top-worked?
Do you know anything about the variety “Florida” mamay??? Or can you ask for me Paul 🙌🏼
I recently acquired some property that has a mature Mamey tree on it, roughly about 30 feet in height; it has never been pruned and I was curious if i could do a major pruning, perhaps bring it down to about 15 feet in height and shape the bottom. Would you recommend that level of pruning be done at once or is it best to do it over multiple sessions? Or is that overall too drastic of a prune?
Good question. I would prune 25% each year but better to ask Julian at Lara farms
@@FruitfulTrees Thank you so much! That does make sense but yes, I will reach out to them for advise before is start sawing away, lol. Much appreciated.
i want to grow a mamey tree unfortunately i can't because i don't have room for anymore plants in my apartment
Magana,Pantin,Pace,which one do you think is most delicious
I love them all. I don't remember the taste of my pantin but magana and pace are amazing. Magana and pace are the same season. Pantin is a different season
Do Mamey trees need another Mamey for cross pollination or do they self pollinate.
How long after being planted in the ground do Mamey fruit!!
Yes they don’t self Polinate
I believe they don't need cross pollination, but it helps. How much, I don't know.
What if instead of weights, they're dogs? Or house plants? 😁
Does the mammey grow true to seed?
no, best to get a grafted one. Try lara farms www.larafarmsmiami.com
Sometimes it does. I thought mine didn’t, after five years it is the same as the fruit I grew it from. (Like a grammar school football. Hawaii) we topped ours.
My mammary is very lanky. What can I do
contact Lara Farms Miaim and ask Julian
I just want to buy some sugar apple fruits from you sugar apples when the fruits are ready to harvest
atleast he’s logical about human waste inquire, better safe than sorry and if you wanna play with your own feces go for it your an adult hahaha
@fruitful trees Question, I dont have much space in my back yard, I have about 10 feet between my backyard wall and my house. You think this is enough space to plant the mamey tree?
Interesting how trees regress after trauma just as humans do
Where did thy find Chris griffin 😂
No I don't.
Human waste 😬
