Garden of The Geeks thanks for the support! Always great hearing from other local gardeners!

Thanks for the info on this plant.

Bought many seeds from Fruit Lovers nursey. They have an awesome germination rate. I order canistel and they are starting to germinate. Really excited.

Evan Smith Awesome! Pretty much all my Canistel germinated! 3 are slowly growing in the ground and 1 in a container has grown a bit faster.

Do you know what is the coldest temp that canistel survive? Thanks

Bich Ngoc My yard has gotten down to around 25F and my seedlings have survived.

Thanks, I enjoy your tips and informative topics. I'm growing a Black Sapote (chocolate) in Tucson, AZ, zone 9b. It's 14 inches tall and I recently moved it outside in it's pot on the east side which offers morning sun and afternoon shade. It's doing well except that the cutter bees (??) are eating at a few of the upper leaves. In fact there are bites out of almost all the plants this year. What's up?

Barbara C Yeah those cutter bees can be a pain! I haven’t had as many issues with those this year. Have you ever tasted Black Sapote? I’ve never been able to try it.

@@gardenofluma9697 Hello again, I haven't tasted the chocolate, or for that matter, any sapote or pudding fruit. It sounds delicious so I'm giving it a go. If I can keep the various critters from eating the young tree I may have fruit in a year or two. Fingers crossed. I am getting better at making cages for the many young trees I'm growing. I really enjoy watching you and your fruit tree garden is amazing.

Whereabouts in AZ? We're down in the high desert near Sierra Vista / Ft. Huachuca. So far we have had mixed results that required a bit of experimenting since our high desert winter nights can get surprisingly cold.

Cj George Mine are 2 years old from seed and I haven’t had any flowers yet.

Hello, how are you, greetings from Jujuy Argentina, here this fruit does not exist, but I would be interested in being able to plant it. I wanted to ask you until the temperature resists because here the weather in winter reaches -1 centigrade and I don't know if it resists that temperature. I would appreciate it if you can comment, since the information on the canistel is little. Greetings

How's it going! Is this fruit lover's nursery still open? I did a yelp search and read its closed. I would like to know before I purchase seeds for the philippine long canistel. I enjoy your videos! Take care

They are open. They close down their site during the holidays for about a month or two. They should be back up now.
