Here is Okinawa, we bag the fruit and let them ripen on the tree. We use the same bags that we use for passion fruit. The bags here come with a tie that you can attach to the branch. We have amazing success with germinating. We put the seeds inside a moist paper towel and put that into a ziplock bag. We put the bag into the fridge over night and then into a sock drawer for about two weeks. Some of the seeds will begin to germinate while in the drawer. After two weeks, we put the seeds into potted fruit tree soil. We have had 100% of the seeds germinate using this process and have about 20 trees to plant.
Wonderful! IDK why but canistel is one of my very favorite fruits, too. Would guess that, with the color, it's full of vitamin A. I was at the Fruit and Spice Park last week and the pickings were slim; however, one canistel tree had dropped some fruits. I hadn't had any since 2013; didn't hesitate in grabbing a couple, peeling away the edge parts and feasting on that yummy inside! Was able to buy a Tropo at Robert Was Here fruit stand and was just enjoying some of that one today. A special canistel day all around!
I realized when you're at the table your shirt matches the canistel lol same kind of yellowstuff going on then you said that exactly then I actually went crazy lolol
Awesome 👏 I love the fruits I have a trompo 9681 egg fruit tree it’s small but made it through one of our cold weeks down to 26 degrees! Do you have any Aurea for sale?
Well Thank You, I happen t have a fruit tree ...and maybe that's what it's called. however my fruit is round, not pointy at the end...I see you have two varieties...and the name sounds familiar...It blossoms in November...and inside is like you mentioned...Now I would take those branches you cut and plant them in another container with maybe a banana peels, with another fruit, and you may get quicker fruit...
That’s a good luck plants they called in the Phils is Tisa my dads plants and it so beautiful. 🥰 that’s my favorite to eat. I remember I was a little girl it’s grow the side of our house and climb and eat the yellow fruits.😍🙏
I recently saved some seeds from canistels I enjoyed. It is not overly sweet and I was able to enjoy a break from the mango varieties I usually enjoy. I like to break up my fruit diet with canistels and starfruit and figs when I need fruits that are not overly sweet.
Can you explain how to prune and when. I get no flowers although I have the tree for 8 years. I am not sure if it was grown from seed at the nursery or I prune the growing tips. Thank you
@@ronendvir flowers grow in the summer and fruit develop into the winter (at least here) so late winter/early spring ends up being a good time to prune.
My canistel looks healthy and year after year sprouts a ton of the pre-fruit buds, but then they all fall off. Every year same thing. Can anyone suggest why they are not becoming fruit? It gets full sun and the leaves are a healthy green. It also gets watered regularly.
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
My friend planted 3 plants from good tasting fruits. Out of the 3 one made fruits in 3 years, other two made in 4 to 5 years. One tree is packed with lots of smaller fruit. One of the others is packed with bigger fruits but less on tree and the last had a mixture of fruits. They all tasted good. I’d say do both, that’s what I’m doing.
