Re: Carambola "star fruit" in California
Not sure about your part of the state, but these guys do not like the cold. My grandmother has 3 and they do ok.They are about 20-25 feet tall. She does get fruit,but i do not care for the taste of them. I would say that if you do get one, your going to have to figure out how to keep it warm in the winter. My grandmother lives down here in SoCal. But she lives in a micro-climate. When it gets 32F at my house on super cold nights, she gets no lower then 40F.
