Today I harvested papaya, passion fruit, and miracle fruit.

Soon it will be time to harvest two stalks of bananas that made it through the freezes! Ice creams and Cavendish!

Thank you Patty, It was frustrating growing pineapples and other things that would sometimes freeze, where I once lived further north. Now that I'm down here my green thumb is really beginning to produce. Our family and friends eat alot of the fruit.

Thank you and best wishes

On Friday the 27th I harvested 6 papaya, 2 quarts of Jaboticabas, passion fruit, a stalk of dwarf cavendish bananas, and a pineapple. I split the harvest between my mother and in-laws. They were greatly appreciated, as they cannot produce these in zone 9 and 8b.

Best wishes to all and good growing!!

Ice Cream bananas, and large sweet peppers!

I had hand pollinated these but the "father" plant was an AAA. The Blue Java(Ice Cream) is a female fertile banana, when they ripen sufficiently I'll search for a seed. I don't expect much but we'll see.

Red Mulberry (Morus rubra)! I purchased the tree at Fairchild Gardens plant sale. It is a Kampong Sweet. It is the best cultivar for South Florida I have seen grown and tasted. It is very sweet.

Today I harvested green soft seed mangos. The tree is a seedling from a known cultivar, but the fruit is small as not as good as other cultivars. Last year I attempted to graft it but local vandals tore off my grafts. I have now put up a fence.

This mango, when soft seed, is very sour making it great for a pepper mix. Good growing!

The cashew apples have really grown and ripened



They are very juicy, fairly sweet and with a delicate flavour. I have frozen them for processing later into desserts or ice cream



I haven't decided how to process the nuts - atm I favour cracking them under water using latex gloves and eye protection as I can't find anyone who has processed them on an amateur basis
