I am looking for a source for Casimiroa pringlei. Does anyone know where I can get seeds or plants?

Thanks,

, Casimiroa edulis and C. pringlei.

Deciduous: Tetrapanax; Firmiana, Erythrina arborescens, Lagerstroemia hybrids (many of which fit in very well with the 'tropical' look), Hibiscus syriacus, Talipariti hamabo.

Many of the above are versatile, used either as large shrubs or small trees. I also grow various other more tropical species as perennial die-backs, and am always trialing new things here...

Good to see someone who likes trees as much as I do, Justin... :). How big is your Markhamia? I have one in pot and it is rather slow... I thought.

Regards, Ari :)

Markhamia lutea grows fairly slowly in a pot. However, they grow very quickly if given a lot of water in the ground. That's my personal experience here in San Diego, CA.

Old thread revival. Any updates from your Inga edulis anyone? How much cold can it take? I am in zone 9b. Should I try it? It is a stunner for sure.
