Wanted Guanabana Seeds...

edzone9 · 02-22-2013, 07:33 PM

Hello Gang;

Looking To Buy Fresh Guanabana Seeds .
Thank You..

Best place to get fresh seeds is your nearest grocery store. Many grocery stores in FL sell Guanabana, assuming they are in season. Most Asian and Latin grocery store have them. Buy the fruit and save the seeds. Just last week I saw some Cherimoyas for sale at an Asian store in Seattle Chinatown and bought 2 of them. They were hard because they were picked green. But after 2 days on top of the refrigerator, the fruits were ripe and ready to eat. I got at least 2 dozen fresh seeds from them.

Buying seeds from a seed source will cost more than the cost of a fruit, in my experience. And you cannot be sure how old they are.

Thank You ! i have not been able to find them in Fl , i was in miami for 1 week , no guanabanas anywhere i guess there not in season.

Thank You !

When I get them here in Seattle, I will buy a fruit and save the seeds for you. My wife loves them. In the Philippines, guyabano(guanabana) make great ice cream! Although I love mango and mangosteen ice cream more.

I'll PM you when I get them. Sorry you didn't find any in Miami. If they are in season, you should be able to get them in your town.

Regards.
