Hello, I am looking for Lucuma and Green Sapote seeds/seedlings/grafted plants either around Adelaide or shipped. Does anyone have any or know where I could source these two?

I am looking for the same two fruits. I was up in Northern NSW last week and went to Tropical Fruit World and I asked about green sapotes. Unfortunately they are not yet ripe.

Your best bet to get your hands on these species would be to either try and contact a collector who grows these or wait it out until daleys has them in stock again.

Hugo, there is a man named Paul Recher who lives in Northern NSW who grows several types of lucuma and green sapote. He introduced the Lucuma variety 'Kona' (incorrectly sold by daleys as a canistel) which was imported as a scion from Whitman in Florida.

Here is forum topic on lucumas that from memory he said some interesting things on: https://www.daleysfruit.com.au/forum/pouteria-lucuma/?srsltid=AfmBOoqsDf288UJAC-VhrETevrZqqlsxIA08SKOVmkfWqz05M2TFQV1y
You can find his contact details here: https://www.daleysfruit.com.au/newsletter/Mar2008.htm#:~:text=You%20too%20can%20tour%20Paul,phone%20on%2002%2066%20895192.
