Wow great to see the Rollinia showing so much new growth and flower buds. I've always said fruit taste is completely personal. What fruit one person thinks is very sweet another person thinks the same fruit is not sweet. That was easy to see when you gave your custard apple a 4 but your friends said 6
Hi Brett We super excited for our Rollinia , now I feel confident that’s flowers 😊 We will find out when the fruit set 👍😊 Hopefully got one for me next year to show, would be great 👍 😅 Yes my friend say. Sweet, to me not that sweet. Or because I eat to much sweets 🍫😂😂😂 Thank you Brett for always supporting and supporting 🙏🙏🙏 I am very appreciate 😊
Remarkable success on the custard apple. I’m sure the sweetness will get better next month. The Rollinia has a nice compact shape after the pruning so that will help with cold protection. Amazing growth on the jujube they’re so vigorous trees and fruit so heavily. I wouldn’t try growing the more tropical Thai mangoes. It’s just far too cold in Melbourne. As mentioned before. It’s the accumulative cold that kills them not just frost. That means it’s cold for so long that the tree’s ‘immune’ system can’t cope with the stress. Seaweed is good ‘medicine’ but may only delay the inevitable (death). Understand the damage is being continually done even if you can’t see it. Like having a virus that doesn’t show symptoms but eventually you see the results with sickness symptoms. Immune system copes initially then it becomes too much. Firstly with dieback or sometimes like your King Thai very suddenly. Why it’s very important to protect trees early and keep protecting them in spring until the nights minimums are above 10C. Generally that coincides with day temps over 20C on a more regular basis. Combined with longer days with greater stronger sunlight that builds resistance in tropicals. Despite the damage done in winter, the trees have survived quite well. Their resilience to cold should get better year by year with better yields or chance of fruiting success.
Hi Jim You are right, the sweetness coming in middle in November 😊 Yes I will try to protect them earlier spring coming 😊 I don’t want to try again on num docmai mango and king Thai mango,, it’s super hard to grow in our climate 🥹 You know you much about tropical trees. Do you Grow any of them 😊 You are so expert 👍 Thank you so much Jim for always supporting with a very great idea 💡🙏
@ Yes I’ve grown most of the tropicals at one stage or another so have built a fair knowledge base through personal experience. Combined that extensive research and understanding various aspects of each tree’s requirements reflecting their cold tolerance and heat susceptibility. I know a lot of growers both in the south and advice from visiting the north. Nothing like decades of experience though. Just glad I can help growers on their journey and proving the naysayers wrong. Keep up the good work Alyssa. I know you’ve had many challenges and some losses but the custard apple success just shows how well you’re progressing.
Thank you, engineer. Your garden is wonderful and special. I wish I had one like that. It takes a lot from you to maintain my typical tropical garden. Greetings to you from Algeria 💐
