- Many customers ask us what a Che fruit tastes like so we've asked Patrick and Catherine to try one for the first time and tell us what they think. The Che is also known as the Chinese Melonberry and is a relative of the Mulberry. Cudrania tricuspidata is available in a variety of cultivars from our nursery www.crickethillgarden.com. Have you tried a Che? What do you think?
Fantastic nursery! I've bought 16 of these Che fruit trees from Cricket Hill Garden
They look a lot like the osage oranges that are used as rootstock for these by the way.
Perhaps they could be hybrided to make bigger fruits like the osage orange.
I love that you’re just constantly eating the fruit off of the tree throughout the whole video 😂. I live in zone 8 and I’m very eager to get my own! Tho I am sad to learn it might take a few years to bear fruit…
I just tasted che fruit this weekend here in the central Blue Ridge of Virginia. To me, the flavor is if you mixed a mild fig with a mild strawberry and they were very ripe fruit.
Would you grow your own?
@@raymondkyruana118 You should be able to get ripe fruit in zone 7 or 6 under greenhouse. The fruit he is tasting is only half as ripe as it should because it is too cold there. The tree at edible landscaping (che seedless) produces dark red che with the most amazing sweet complex flavor. It is like a ripe berry fig/raspberry/melon.
I got to taste my Che tree fruit last summer for the first time, they are 6 years old and very very very small grafted female plants I have 3 of them. I'm so disappointed in their size 2 are still under 2 feet and one is probably 3 1/2 feet tall. They cost a lot. I am having the same problem they have a lot of berries every year but they never get ripe and they just fall off. For some reason last year the bigger trees berries ripened. I was so happy to be able to finally try some. I love them they taste so good. Now if I can just figure out why they are staying so small?
2 of mine came in being 2ft tall sticks. They're thicker and wider (branched out) now (1 year later). Had to water them from time to time due to drought here in GA.
What soil do you need when planting one. Do you add anything to the soil when planting.
How much does it cost
Thank you, do you know if the deer eat the leaves?
DEER eat the leaves. Put a wire fence circle around it to keep them from accessing the trunk.
@@nikkilala2 Thank you, I will
Definitely want to purchase these from you but I live in a, colder than you, zone 6 in New England. can they ripen off the tree at all?
Great video, I subscribed 👍🏻
How would i buy 1 ?
Hmm. You said zone 9 but I'm reading zone 10. I'm in Zone 10 and read that it would remain evergreen here and that it needs no chill hours to fruit.
Is this growing in Hot Climate?
They say it grows in zones 5b - 9 so I would say yes.
He says in the video, he is in zone 6. Connecticut USA.
I bought a female ( maybe Norris?)from you a few years ago. I'm in zone 5b. My tree is about three- four years old. No fruit yet. Might have to buy a male.
Does it flower?
Is it your che fruit tree has thorn? Because my che fruit tree has a thorn
Mine had thorns on the bottom. They were actually only from the thorny Osage orange root stock, so chopped em off.
Азимина
Трилоба. Я у них азимину тоже купил. Отлично пока всё прижилось.
Communist?
Che fruit - Che Guevara. What are you single digit IQ?
