Join me as I taste these bangers. Same tree. Same pollination. Different personalities. Let’s see which Pinks Mammoth atemoya tastes the best. Atemoyas are small, an ideal tree for Southern California.

Dinner, tonight. Mammee Sapote, a delicious Central American rare fruit.

Deceiving mamey sapote!
It's super squishy on the outside so I split it hoping it was ripe enough.🤦🏻‍♀️ Should have waited a day or two.
On the other hand, it was seedless!!! My first seedless mamey sapote. That brown shell was supposed to be the seed.😂 #Pouteriasapota #Mamey #sapote #rarefruit

A seedling of “Catherine’s Find” flowering for the first time. So far, these seedlings have been pretty tasty, but none have made fruit as large as CF.

“Nettie” white sapotes should be ready soon.

Velvet tamarind (Dialium cochinchinense) pushing new growth in zone 9b, Santa Cruz, CA. I’m pretty sure this isn’t supposed to survive here.

First fruits from a rarity, Araca Amarillo de Caatinga. Expectations were low, but I actually really liked this one.

Eugenia sp Casca Molle - When a seed goes too long it might have an outer shell that may need to be cracked to expose the true seed. In this case, I figured just take a hammer to it and find out :) Now it will either germinate or rot. Fingers crossed. #garden #gardening #gardentips #fruit #rarefruit

Merry Christmas and happy holidays from your plant loving friend. #garden #fruit #gardening #plantsmakepeoplehappy #rarefruit

You’ll remember the taste of this guava #guava #psidium #gardening #fruit #rarefruit #tropicalfruit

One of my top 10 favorite fruit of all time #fruit #rarefruit #garden #gardening #growyourown

Annona emarginata. Great taste, but… #fruit #rarefruit #garden #gardening

Mamey sapote, aka Pouteria sapota, is a cool fruit that tastes like sweet pumpkin mixed with sweet potato. It’s a tropical fruit tree but grows well in Southern California. #gardening #gardening #fruit #fruittrees #tropicalfruit #rarefruit

Mark Twain called it, “Deliciousness itself.”
Creamy like sherbet with pineapple, banana & papaya + bright citrus, tropical flavor & luxurious texture 🌱 I’m espaliering this especially rare Atemoya, self pollinating (!!!), no paintbrushes to get fruit. #Soursop #CustardApple #Cherimoya #RareFruit

People often called them Chinese gooseberries when I was a kid. Tamarillo, similar marketing name origin

Not as common a fruit as kiwi around the world but pretty popular here
