    Sapodilla takes timeeeeee to get ripe, the ones in West Palm Beach take a while to get ripe on the tree, you usually have to wait until they fall off the tree or if you barely touch them and they drop they ready, and of course if you squeeze and it’s soft to the touch, it’s ready🤙🏿

    Wow his place is rocking 👍 From my personal experience Breadfruit can survive the 30s in the right area(understory). I’ve had mine for three years. I’m also in zone 9b almost 9a. The 20s is what I’m worried about. Good luck and thanks for sharing 👊

    OMGODdess!! It was the palm tree standing so strong and tall, that got me texting compliments, of how organized, and beautiful green leaves, good spacing between plants, the green house was awesome. I love how the Sunlight gets in the garden. This is a beautiful diverse garden of Jamaican fruits, great video overall, I love the blend of herbs I wish to see more. OMGoddess!! Cocoa, my favorite.

    For the super tropicals like bread fruit I would put trees around it to protect it like ones that would make it through a cold either that or put a cloth over it and a heat lamp id say if you want to keep it during a frost. Im in 9b in California which probably pretty close to Florida climate but I dont have breadfruit yet no room. But ya a food island like at 27:11. Id prob put the bread fruit in there for example

    Wonderful tour!!!..I have a dwarf June Plum..it’s only about 4 ft tall but loaded…I’ve eaten them when they are a pale green..not crazy about them. Im waiting for them to turn yellow to see if taste gets any better. Our Jamaican neighbors says they make juice out of it. Any other ways these are used and does the taste change when yellow?

    Woŵ, amazing! My soursop blossoms fall off. Does he self-pollinate his soursops? I saw that on UA-cam. In Florida, losing the bees that would pollinate fruit trees because of so much construction so now the problem is fruits not getting to fruition. I would love to live in the countryside.

    The breadfruit might make it. If the coconut is still good. My coconut lasted about 4 yrs and then Orlando winter. He's right i can eat breadfruit and coconut everyday. We eat our breadfruit steam with coconut milk.

      Coconut is much more cold tolerant than the breadfruit. But I’m rooting for him.

      I’m in Florida and never going to claim be to be smart about this stuff but to me I’m learning that trees like coconut and such palms can be useful to also succession plant. Like grow a sprout out for 3 years of good health on your inground and on 4-5 year as nature does rip out and replace with the new 3 year old maybe. Still tinkering but. With palms and such to me personally if I’m here on earth anyways why not try.

    What I'd like to know is where do people find these fruit trees/plants? I watch videos all the time and can never figure out through searching where to find sources to buy some. I think twice a year there's a big rare fruit tree event that happens at the south florida fair grounds, is that something I'd find all these cool varieties of trees at?
