the big sapodilla is recovering with a flush of new leaves. the two smaller ones look gone, no leaves left. one is still limber so I’ll wait on it

Bunch of white sapote
Rare sweet myrcianthes guabiju putting on some nice growth. She grows slowly up until lately.

it very well could be a sapote. I had it marked mamey when I put the seeds in the pots but I’m often mixing up labels.
Not a canistel, but a mango. Not very exciting, mango seedlings are a dime a dozen. Good news is its probably a seedling of the “Tebow” mango I thought I didn’t plant the seed of. Bad news I still haven’t had a canistel sprout then.

Tumbo Passionfruit (Passiflora mixta). A type of banana passionfruit from the Andes mountain region. Not sure how well it will do long term in my area, but I am just glad I have some germination already.
Passionfruit seedlings (Passiflora edulis). These are from the large sized fruit I had before, and they are starting to develop their true leaves. When I go home next weekend I might take these with me to start seperating them out.
Tzimbalo seedling (Solanum caripense). An exotic solanum, closer to the pepino melon than like a tomato. Pretty excited about fast germination, my luck with solanums is always mixed.
White Ice Cream Bean seedlings (Inga laurina). Hopefully I will be able to divide these when they get a little bit bigger, and 2 seeds become 6 plants. Thats what I did with my other Inga. Super fast growing seedlings, hopefully these ones don’t get stunted like my others.

thanks, it was a gift from a client at work! i love snail, frog, and owl things for the garden. my partner has ants and turtles.
my sapodilla is coming back pretty good. the rest are all growing and i keep finding more strewn around. i just got pawpaw seed, they’re in the fridge a few weeks until maybe next month i can put them out to try. they might end up in greenhouse over winter if they pop small when it’s starting to get really cold. not sure yet on timing.
