What’s your favorite fruit? Can you grow it? Success and failures. thanks

Hmm, well i remember once having some starfruit and i found that quite cool, i've only had it once more aside that first time in hawaii. don't know if i could grow it around me unless it were in a pot. Don't know if i'd call it my favorite having only had it a few times but its at least something i found very memorable.

Mangosteen of course! Followed by Longkong and lychee. The mangosteen has been a long road of failures but I am steadily shoring up my learning curve. Obtaining a well maintained plant at the start is the first step of success. I have lots of seedlings currently going and a grafted plant soon to arrive. I have two large seedlings recently obtained that are looking very healthy so far.

The Longkong is a recent obsession I picked up on my last trip to Thailand. Love the fruit! Had to have the plants. Got a couple of nice grafted plants and a couple of seedling langsats. These will eventually be grafted to one of the grafted plants as multi-rootstock nurse plants. Should be an interesting experiment.

The lychee is having troubles at this time. While in the container, it was full and beautiful. It's been in the ground for nearly eight months now and is struggling. Hopefully it will turn around soon.
