do you grow any Artocarpus species

jackfruit A. heterophyllus 

chempedak Artocarpus integer

Marang  A. odoratissimus

[Cindy Adair]

I have several fruiting Jakfruits and a huge Marang with lots of seedlings beneath.

And of course breadfruit too.

I think I have a few more of this genus that haven't yet produced?

The fruiting tree is so tall that I didn't notice the fruits this year, but will pay better attention in the future! It must produce well at least some years based on the numerous babies below.

Saved a few langka (A. heterophyllus) seeds  when I was in the Philippines late last year. I have several saplings, but have a few years yet until they get big!

I've got a "Gold Nugget" jackfruit (A. heterophyllus).  I want to get cuttings from friends and graft other varieties onto it when it gets bigger.  It's about two meters tall now.

I wish I could grow and taste marang, but I think that jackfruit is the only hardy species.

We have Artocarpus heterophyllus and A. hypargyraeus growing well here. Trees are 10-20ft tall. We haven't gotten any fruit yet. Both have tolerated down to about 28F with just some leaf burn.

 

I have a young A. nitidus var. lingannesis to plant out this year. It is native to southern China so may have some hardiness.

how old is Artocarpus heterophyllus, 20 feet should produce fruits 

[Eric in Orlando]

It has been in the ground since 2001. In the past it has flowered and set some fruit. they got to about golf ball size and dropped. But it hasn't flowered in 10 years or so.

In the last couple years it is getting encroached from the canopy of an expanding Ficus benghalensis. I'm going to plant a couple others elsewhere this spring.
