Re: Growing Citrus

I have a bunch of citrus growing, what I really like also is when they bloom. I could stand around that area and just take in the fragrance. :08:

Re: Book: The World of Bananas in Hawaii: Then and Now

What does the book say that's bad about Manzano? I bought some from the market, and they tasted good to me. I even have one planted in the yard.
Thanks,

Re: Citrus limettioides (Sweet Lime)

Are they sweet? I tried one a couple years ago, and it was indeed sweet, no trace of sour at all, kinda weird.

Re: Citrus medica (Citron) cv. Buddha's Hand

Here's one I got on clearance at Lowe's for about $10. Brought it home about a month ago. I'm thinking of repotting it, but not sure if it's a good idea in this cold weather. This one has been left...

Re: Citrus medica (Citron) cv. Buddha's Hand

:nanadrink:

I have two planted in containers. Got a a few fruits. However, they don't have much fragrance, especially not when compared to the fruits I see in stores. Any idea why?

Thanks,

Re: Dragon Fruit

As an alternative to picking them early, can you wrap each fruit in something?

H. polyrhizus.

I planted this in June 2010. This week, I saw flower buds for the 1st time. According to the label, Hylocereus polyrhizus does NOT need a pollinator. Does that mean I don't have to do anything, and...

Re: discussion of bananas grown in water

Vicki, you're my Aqua-Banana hero! I've been wanting to do this for a long time, but there's just so many other things to do in the yard, I forgot about it. I will definitely go get a SDC to try out....

Do you have Mexican cream guava? The fragrance is intense. I've been looking for one.

Re: The money pit

Wow, double protection: the fence, and the Canary Island Date Palm with their sharp pointy leaves. Neighborhood kids wanting your guavas will think twice.

Re: The money pit

How about the side yard? Any progress there? I'm hoping by the time summer comes and I come visit, you'll have lots of things planted already.

Re: Pomegranate bonsai: how to care for it?

Well, I want to keep it in that same pot for a while, so I guess the answer is yes. I don't want to repot it to a larger, "normal sized" container.
