Cherimoya - Fino de Jete - Anybody in Melbourne? (forum)

Oryx starts with ...
Hi

Was just wondering if anybody in Melbourne has one of these growing? and would be willing to provide me with some seeds for germination or maybe even producing a specimen for by some other means?

I would like to get one, but see Daley's has been looking for propagation material for some time now.

hi stefan,
it is highly unlikley that you will get
a cherimoya cutting to strike.
the wood is usually uswed to graft
onto rootstock.

id leave the fruit on until it gets a little bit soft.

i will be looking for some grafting wood
about december if you were interested
in doing a swap for some dragon fruit
cuttings.
