And they can tolerate brief temperature drops down to 30 degrees once they're established. In colder areas, simply bring the tree indoors for the winter. It quickly grows to a manageable size - reaching 20 feet when planted outdoors but only 4 to 8 feet when grown in a container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlus, with good looks and great taste, indoor growth is highly desirable. This exotic tree has vibrant green leaves and an aromatic scent that will enhance space - the perfect contrast against its vivid, vibrant orange-red hue. Also, the Glenn Mango is self-pollinating, which means it will produce fruit all by itself. Just place it by a sun-soaked, South-facing window and watch the growth take off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhat we love about the Glenn Mango: \u003c\/b\u003eYour medium to large mangoes will be ready for harvesting from\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003elate June to July. Seed-grown Mango Trees can take 6 to 8 years to produce fruit, but because we put in extra work to hand-graft your tree (adding a year or more to our own growing schedule), it's ready to go and grow. And with a firm texture, Glenn Mangoes are not as fibrous as most mango varieties, making them the perfect fruit for adding to desserts, salads or savory chutneys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBasically, you can save thousands of dollars and tons of time with the Glenn Mango - order your own today!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 59.7701%; height: 117.563px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 36.9014%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Pot Size\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.5352%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAverage Height\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 36.9014%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e6\" \/ 1 gallon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.5352%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e1 ft.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 36.9014%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e10\" \/ 3 gallon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.5352%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e1.5-2 ft.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 36.9014%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e12\" \/ 5 gallon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.5352%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e3 ft.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 36.9014%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e14\" \/ 7 gallon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.5352%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e5-6 ft.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 36.9014%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e15 gallon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 62.5352%; height: 19.5938px;\"\u003e6-8 ft.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePlanting \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Glenn Mango (Mangifera indica 'Glenn') is a fast growing, semi-dwarf tropical tree that produces delicious mangoes without taking up too much space. This full sun loving tropical tree is best suited for USDA growing zones 9-11 but can be successfully container grown for zones 4-11. When grown outside in more tropical areas, the mango can take cold snaps that drop as low as 30 degrees. One of the other advantages of the Glenn is that it is a self-fertile tree which means you can get fruit with just the one but have a more bountiful harvest with two nearby one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLocation: \u003c\/strong\u003eDirect sunlight and lots of warmth are a mango’s best friend. When choosing a location, whether in a container or in the ground, try to choose a place with the most hours of sunlight possible. If the container will be indoors, place it near a window. When choosing a location in the ground, avoid low areas or areas that tend to flood. Mangoes like to be on higher, drier ground for better drainage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote: This product grows best in well-draining soil.

Take a pitchfork or shovel and loosen the soil around the sides of the hole. Remove any debris, like dirt clumps, grass, or rocks. \u003cbr\u003e2) Carefully remove the tree from its plastic container and gently comb through the root ball to free up the roots. \u003cbr\u003e3) Position your tree in the hole, and make sure that it’s level with the surrounding ground, and that it is standing straight up.\u003cbr\u003e4) Back fill the hole and tamp down with your hands as you go to avoid any air pockets from forming.\u003cbr\u003e5) When you have finished, water the planting site generously and then broadcast mulch around the base to conserve soil moisture and combat any competing weeds that try to grow around the tree. Avoid letting the mulch touch the trunk of the tree or fungus and rot may set in.\u003cbr\u003e*\u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mangoes prefer loose sandy soil that is on the acidic side. To achieve this, mix a little sand into the hole along with a bag of acidic planting mix. The acidic planting mix will have lots of potassium to make your mangoes taste more flavorful!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Directions (potted):\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e1) Select a pot that has multiple drainage holes in the bottom and is 2 sizes bigger than what the mango initially arrived in.\u003cbr\u003e2) Fill in the open pot space around the root system with a quality potting mix that has a light acidic side to it. \u003cbr\u003e3) Tamp down the potting soil as you would if the tree was planted in the ground to prevent any air pockets from forming. \u003cbr\u003e4) Water the mango well so the soil has been evenly moistened and allow the soil to settle.\u003cbr\u003e5) Ensure the tree is in a very sunny location as this tree does need full sun to thrive. 6-8+ hours each day is best for the exposure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003eMangoes are rarely ever thirsty but for their first two weeks of establishing, they \u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003etry to water daily to help with establishment. After the first two weeks water as needed when the soil is dry a few inches down. Mangos can be sensitive to overwatering, so feel the soil before watering and adjust accordingly based on your weather. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizer: DO NOT USE CHEMICAL FERTILIZER!\u003c\/strong\u003e Mangoes are easily burnt by fertilizers high in ammonium nitrate. The best fertilizer is a natural, organic one with mycorrhizal fungi and beneficial bacteria. A little gardening secret that Indians used to do that works wonders on mangoes, bury a fish touching the roots of your plant. The fish contains lots of nutrient crucial to a mango in its first years. Potted mangos will benefit from a balanced fertilizer formula such as a 10-10-10 while actively growing. Cut back on feeding the tree nitrogen in flowering period, instead provide a boost of phosphorus and potassium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeed Control: \u003c\/strong\u003eWeeds steal vital nutrients from the plants around them. The best way to keep weeds at bay and help your tree grow is with pine bark. Placing a one-inch thick layer three feet around the base of your tree will stop the weeds. Also another bonus is as the pine bark decomposes, it will raise the acidity of your soil naturally!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003eOn a mango tree the fruit forms at the ends of the branches. Because pruning causes the tree to put on more lateral branches, pruning will give you more mangoes. Mangoes are very forgiving so don’t be afraid to prune them, but don’t go crazy and scalp the thing. Your goal when pruning should be to form an open crown so that light and air can penetrate to the middle of the tree. This will reduce the risk of fungus and diseases. The best time of year to prune your mango tree is right after the harvest; but in cooler areas you will be better off pruning just before the mango starts to flower. Some light pruning of the potted mango is good. These trees do not typically require a lot of pruning, just be sure to remove dead, damaged or diseased branches to help control the tree’s shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination: \u003c\/strong\u003eMangoes are excellent self-pollinators and will produce fruit by themselves.

A 24 inch container holds a 5-foot tree; adjust accordingly to the proper sized container. Wash the container with a mild soap and water and allow it to air dry.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Place the container in the spot you wish to grow the papaya tree, or have a dolly available to move the container once the papaya tree is replanted. Depending on the size of the container, it may be too heavy to move easily.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Fill half of the container with a lightweight potting soil. Place the papaya tree's root ball in the center of the container. Pour additional potting soil around the root ball until the container is full within 3 to 4 inches of the top. Make sure the tree is positioned in the middle of the container; push the soil down firmly to make sure it does not move out of position.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Water the tree thoroughly but do not allow water to stand on top of the soil. Keep the soil watered every three to four days to avoid moisture-stress of the tree.\u003cbr\u003e 5) Place a layer of mulch over the top of the soil to preserve moisture and keep the roots of the tree at a steady temperature.\u003cbr\u003e 6) Feed the tree every three to four weeks with a water soluble-fertilizer that contains equal portions of nitrogen, potassium and phosphate -- such as a 10-10-10 formula. Follow the manufacturer's directions to mix the fertilizer with water; do not apply too much.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting instructions (in ground):\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e1) Plant your papaya plant where it will receive full sun, away from power lines and other trees.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Amend clay soil with organic matter, like peat moss, to improve drainage. Do not amend the soil with compost and do not fertilize.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Dig out the amended soil in a hole 3 times the size of the container of the plant. Fill the hole back up until there is a space slightly larger than the container.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Place the root ball in the hole.\u003cbr\u003e 5) Fill the hole the rest of the way with the native soil and tamp it down then water the tree deeply.\u003cbr\u003e 6) Soak the soil at least 8\" down. Wait about a half hour after you've finished and then dig down in the soil with your trowel. If it's not wet 8\" or more below the surface, you either haven't watered enough or you watered too fast and the water ran off elsewhere. A gentle soak for an hour or 2 is better than puddling soil around your plants and moving on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Watering is the most critical aspect in raising papayas. Water the papaya plants around the root zone. Papayas need plenty of water to grow tasty fruit, but the plants do not tolerate wet feet (saturated soil). To avoid overwatering the papaya, water deeply only when the top 1 inch of soil dries. If the soil isn't moist 8 inches below the surface you'll need to water more. In the winter season the plant prefers to remain as dry as possible. A plant that has been injured by frost is particularly susceptible to root rot. In the summer they can handle all the water you can give them provided the soil drains well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination:\u003c\/strong\u003e Papaya does not require a second tree for pollination because the male flowers on the tree can pollinate the female flowers on the same tree. However, papaya trees will provide a better fruit yield when there is an additional tree close by. Both insects and wind patterns move pollen between flowers of different papaya plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning:\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e1) Put on gloves and safety glasses before pruning a papaya tree. The latex sap of the papaya may cause skin irritation in sensitive individuals.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Remove broken or dead leaves and their stems with anvil pruners or loppers. Use anvil pruners on small stems, under 5\/8 inch in diameter. Loppers are usually used on larger stems, under 2 1\/2 inches in diameter.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Prune all branches, removing them completely. The papaya generally doesn't develop branches unless the stem is damaged.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Cut off any shoots sprouting from the base of the papaya. If the papaya tree is several years old and fruit production is slowing, allow one shoot to grow after the harvest, usually in September. In the spring, remove the main stem and stake the shoot, encouraging it to become a new, fruiting stem.\u003cbr\u003e 5) Revitalize a papaya tree that's grown too tall by cutting the main stem off in the spring, 3 feet from the ground. Cover the remaining stem with a garbage bag to protect it from water or rain. Several shoots will quickly sprout from the base of the papaya. When the shoots are 1 foot tall, select the strongest shoot as a new main stem. Remove all the other shoots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p4\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Papaya requires regular applications of nitrogen fertilizers monthly. They can take fairly hot organic fertilizing such as aged chicken manure if used with deep irrigation after warm weather has started.

It is relatively easy to grow, particularly for those in tropical or subtropical locations where maintenance is minimal. It can also be container-grown for those in frost-prone regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing a location:\u003c\/strong\u003e A full sun location is best. When planting outside, expect the plant to go dormant while acclimating to its new environment. Dragon fruit cactus enjoy a lot of light so try to avoid shady areas. They also prefer a well draining soil, a sandy cactus potting mix (if container grown) works well. Remember, try to stay away from wet, mucky soils. If living in more temperate growing zones the dragon fruit can be potted and brought indoors, they adapt quite well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote: This product grows best in well-draining soil.

Most damage occurs when the box is ripped open in the excitement of receiving new plants. Many succulents are very fragile and sections will snap off easily if not handled carefully. Remove the plant from its pot by laying it on its side and lightly tapping the sides of the container. Gently slide the plant out of the pot. In some cases where the roots have grown through the holes of the container you may need to cut the container off of the plant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse a pair of garden shears or sharp knife to make slits down the sides of the root ball. This will encourage accelerated root growth into the new soil. Be sure not to cut too deeply into the main root system, the object is to only score or cut through the secondary (or feeder) roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Dragon fruit is a climbing cactus and will require support to climb on as it matures. Aerial roots that form on the ends of the branches seek out something to climb, so you will want to provide some long term support. A singular \"climbing pole\" will assist in giving the cactus structure and help it to reach its full potential without breaking off the lower sections of growth. For potted dragon fruit, you will need a similar support pole.\u003cbr\u003e2) Plant in ground or in a container using well drained, sandy soil. Your dragon fruit cactus should be planted flush with the soil line. Often we have found mixing a small amount of slow, time release fertilizer into the lower level of the soil before planting speeds up the rate of growth. When planting in ground, space plants to allow clumps to form and develop properly. If planted too tightly there will not be enough room for root expansion and plants will not reach their full height and fruiting potential.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e For a potted dragon fruit cactus, allow enough room for root growth. A 10+ inch deep container will be good to start out and will do well with a climbing pole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dragon fruit cactus must be treated like a tropical cactus and watered when nearly dry. An automatic dripper at the top of the post works well. The leading cause of early death with cactus plants (and many others) is overwatering. Many decorative containers do not have drainage holes at the bottom. When a plant is regularly watered, the roots in the bottom of the pot are subjected to waterlogging at which point root decay begins. Keep this in mind when shopping for the cactus pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Every few months, examine the cactus for areas of congested growth when it is actively growing. Be cautious when pruning, wear long sleeved shirts, gloves and pants. Prune off branches of the cactus that may be touching, growing over one another or touching the ground. You'll want clear areas around remaining branches so the large flowers that bloom at night have plenty of room to expand. This will also make the fruit much easier to pick.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Tip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Feel free to discard what you removed or you can attempt to root them to create new cactus plants!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fertilizer can be detrimental to a dragon fruit cactus and too much can kill the plant. Fertilize sparingly with low-nitrogen cactus fertilizer, slow time release is best. For in ground planting, broadcast a balanced granular fertilizer once a month. Dragon fruit cactus are light feeders, however if left unfertilized, they will tend to grow very slowly and remain virtually dormant. For a rich, full look, feed them every other month but take care not to over fertilize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHarvesting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Roughly 30 to 50 days after flowering is when the fruit should be about ready for harvesting. It will change from a bright green to a red or pink color. The fruit will be oval shaped and about 10-15 cm long. A few spots on the outer skin is normal but if it has a lot of dark splotches (similar to apple bruising) it may have become over ripened. The \"wings\" can also be a hint that the fruit is ripe or not. The wings are the leafier parts that extend off of the fruit. They will start to turn slightly brown and dry out. This means they are ready to be picked. If the wings are still a colorful yellow or red color, the fruit is still not quite fully ripened.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePropagating:\u003c\/strong\u003e One of the best benefits of having your own dragon fruit cactus is the ability to harvest the seeds from the fresh fruit and use them for more cactus plants.\u003cbr\u003e1) Scoop out a pulpy seeded portion of the ripened fruit and wash all of the pulp off of the seeds.\u003cbr\u003e2) Fill some very well draining pots with a sterile, germinating potting medium. You can purchase the medium or make it yourself using equal parts of sand, peat moss, vermiculite or perlite. Sow the seeds over the surface of the medium evenly.\u003cbr\u003e3) Just barely cover the seeds by sprinkling a light layer of germinating medium over them.\u003cbr\u003e4) Gently (but thoroughly) mist the medium and seeds at the time of sowing and when the medium is dry to the touch before germination.\u003cbr\u003e5) Cover the pot with a plastic lid or glass to help maintain a level of high humidity around the seeds and cut back on the need to constantly mist. You can also enclose the pot in a plastic bag to assist with the humidity.\u003cbr\u003e6) Place the seeded container in a place that receives bright but indirect light. Try to keep the temperature between 65 to 70 degrees for the best results. The seeds should germinate within 14 to 28 days and this is when you will remove the glass or plastic covering the pot and allow the surface to dry out a little between waterings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFAQs\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does dragon fruit take to grow?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- faq --\u003e During the growing season, dragon fruit grows very fast and can fruit, on average and with correct conditions, within a year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- faq --\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs dragon fruit easy to grow?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c!-- faq --\u003e Dragon fruit is surprisingly easy to grow.

Check the soil often during hot weather—your tree may need extra water. In heavy soils, let the soil dry between waterings. Once established (after one to two years), the tree can usually rely on rainfall, needing only a few inches every 10 days. During hot, dry periods, add extra water as needed. The best method is to use a slow-trickling hose at the base for about 30 seconds once a week.

A large hole loosens the soil making it easy for the roots to expand into the adjacent soil.\u003cbr\u003e 3) Gently comb the root ball to free up the feeder roots and position them downward into the hole. Try to mimic the natural soil habitat for the tree for the back filling. Amend the soil with some organic matter\/compost at a 50-50 ratio of dirt removed from the hole.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mycorrhizal fungi (available for purchase in our \u003cstrong\u003eRoot Rocket\u003c\/strong\u003e) is highly recommended as a soil additive when back filling your planting site.\u003cbr\u003e 4) Keep the tree as straight as possible and begin to backfill the hole.

This will help maintain the health and integrity of the tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Sunlight is a major requirement for a healthy potted lychee so be sure you have a good full sun location indoors while the cold season is present.\u003cbr\u003e 2) Select a pot 1-2 sizes larger than what the lychee came in (Example: Came in a 1 gallon pot, go up to a 3 gallon).\u003cbr\u003e 3) Lychees tend to like a more moistened soil so use a good moisture controlled soil or even an automatic watering pot to keep a steady flow of water going to the roots. Avoid over saturating the soil. (Some of the best results with potting were from a mixture of equal parts compost and topsoil with partially decomposed mulch).\u003cbr\u003e 4) Container grown lychees need to have the nutrients in their soil replenished, adding Mycorrhizal fungi will increase the root growth and their ability to distribute\/absorb nutrients and water.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Remove your lychee from its container once a year and trim back the roots a little. You can also do this when it is time for the tree to be re-potted into a larger container. Uncontrolled root growth can be very unhealthy for the tree since they cannot absorb water or take in oxygen as needed.\u003cbr\u003e 5) If your tree is indoors during the flowering time you may need to assist the tree with spreading the pollen around. Nature typically takes care of this for you with bees and other insects providing the flowers emerge during the warmer seasons. If the tree is indoors you can mimic the pollinating by using a small, fine tipped paint brush or cotton swab. Just collect the pollen from each flower and go back and forth to all of the blooms. Do not rinse the brush off! This defeats the purpose of collecting the pollen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lychee trees are moderately drought tolerant. However, newly planted lychee trees should be irrigated regularly during establishment. In the home landscape, trees will perform well without supplemental irrigation after the trees are established. For more consistent cropping of mature trees, withholding irrigation during the fall and winter until bloom may enhance the amount of flowering. Water a container grown lychee every day. In the summer, missing even a single day of watering can cause major leaf drop on the tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTip:\u003c\/strong\u003e Applying a thin layer of well cured compost from the drip-line to within 6 inches of the trunk may be beneficial for the fibrous roots of lychee trees. In addition, mulching lychee trees in the home landscape helps retain soil moisture, reduces weed problems adjacent to the tree trunk, and improves the soil near the surface. Mulch with a 2 to 6 inch (5-15 cm) layer of bark, wood chips, or similar mulch material. Keep mulch 8 to 12 inches (20-30 cm) from the trunk to prevent rotting of the base of the trunk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning:\u003c\/strong\u003e Occasional thinning\/pruning of the lychee is encouraged for protection from wind damage and builds a strong structure. The density of the lychee makes it susceptible to powerful wind gusts which might cause it to blow over. Younger lychees need to maintain a round shape so be sure to thin them out annually. This will also help with the sunlight exposure and better air circulation for the canopy. When the tree gets to about 4-5 years old it should be near its full maturity and a yearly trimming of the fruit should be sufficient in terms of pruning the tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA potted lychee will not require any pruning for at least 2-3 years and even then, it’s a minor thinning to open crotch angles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing:\u003c\/strong\u003e After the first flush of growth hardens, when the leaves start to turn a darker green and the shoots harden off is when you will want to feed your tree. Refrain from using any type of artificial fertilizers, these can kill many beneficial organisms in your soil’s ecosystem. Use organic fertilizers to feed your lychee tree such as kelp, compost extracts or seaweed. Using fertilizer formulas containing Nitrogen, Phosphorous and Potassium can easily lead to burning of the tree’s roots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCease fertilizing in the third year to get the tree fully prepared to enter its fruit bearing stage. After the harvest of fruit, fertilize with half the amount and do not feed again until fruit has set for the second harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContainer grown lychees do not require fertilizer but will benefit greatly by spraying liquid phosphorous on the leaves. Do this during times of transplantation and annually around September or October.

It loves heat and humidity and thrives in zones 9-11, but can also be grown in a pot and brought indoors during the winter months. The green, glossy leaves make for a beautiful background against the fragrant flowers in the spring. Packed with vitamin C and fiber, the juicy, sweet fruit also has a deep red-orange flesh that is thin and easy to peel, making it a perfect snack for anyone on the go. Ready for harvesting around November-December, the Dancy Tangerine is self-fertile, but pair it with another tree for a higher yield of fruits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dancy trees will do best in warmer climates as it is classified as a tropical plant. Zones 8 to 11 are ideal for outdoor planting. However, if you do experience cold winters, plant your Dancy tree in a container and bring it inside for the fall and winter seasons. We recommend planting in Spring through Fall for outdoors since they are sensitive to colder temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelecting a location:\u003c\/strong\u003e Choose a location where your tree is going to get plenty of sunlight, 6-8 hours per day is best. They can tolerate some shade, but thrive in full sun. You’ll want to ensure trees are spaced 8-10 feet apart if planting more than one. These trees also do better in areas with high humidity so you may also need to create humidity for your tree by misting the leaves daily with water. Potted plants do enjoy a daily misting for humidity but placing a tray with rocks filled with water under the plant will feed humidity to the tree as the water evaporates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Directions (in Ground):\u003c\/strong\u003e If you are located in zones 8-11 and your winter temperatures stay consistently warm, your Dancy will do well being planting outside in the ground. Be sure the area has well draining soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the root system.\u003cbr\u003e2) Place the tree in the hole and back fill it with your sandy, well-drained, acidic soil. If you have clay soil, try amending it with sand, stone, perlite or fine potting soil.\u003cbr\u003e3) Tamp the soil down as you backfill the hole to cut back on any pockets from forming.\u003cbr\u003e4) After planting, be sure to give your Dancy tree a deep watering for about 5 minutes. Mulching around the tree will help insulate the roots and keep your plant warm in the colder winter months as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Instructions (potted):\u003c\/strong\u003e If your winter temperatures are consistently below 40 degrees, plant your tree in a container that can easily be brought outside in the summer months and inside in the winter. A planter with built-in casters is a good choice so it can easily be moved. Choose a pot slightly larger than what it was shipped in that has plenty of holes in the bottom to allow for drainage. Be sure to plant in well-draining potting soil preferably recommended for acid loving citrus plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Fill your pot halfway with soil. Remove the tree from its original pot and gently place it in the potting soil.\u003cbr\u003e2) Fill in around the tree with the remainder of the potting soil but be sure not to cover the grafted area of the tree. Leave about an inch from the soil surface to the rim of the pot for easy watering.\u003cbr\u003e3) Lightly pack down the soil. Immediately after planting, give your tree a deep watering until it flows from the holes in the bottom of the pot.\u003cbr\u003e4) Place your tree in an area of your home, preferably a south-facing window, where it is going to get plenty of sunlight. Supplement with a grow light if it will not receive at least 6-8 hours of sunlight a day. You may also need to create humidity for your tree by placing the pot on a saucer of pebbles or misting the leaves daily with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination assistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e You can pollinate your indoor trees by hand since most people do not keep a healthy bee population within their home. Simply take a small, dry, fine tipped paint brush and stick it into the center of the bloom. Swirl it around and collect the pollen on the brush. Go to the next bloom and repeat the process until every bloom has been treated. Do this once daily and don’t wash the paintbrush until after the blooms have been pollinated. The bloom will fall off naturally and the fruit will begin to form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003eDancys do not like wet feet. Be sure to give your tree a deep watering so that it can penetrate into the root system. After watering, allow the top 2-3 inches of the soil to dry out completely before watering again. Yellowing and droopy leaves is a common sign of over watering while brown, dry leaves are a sign of under watering. Mulching can help retain the soil moisture and also combat competing grasses\/weeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor potted Dancys, stick your index finger into the soil down to about 2 inches. If there is moisture present, hold off on watering until it feels more dry at that depth. When ready to water, stop once you see it escaping the drainage holes at the base of the pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilization: \u003c\/strong\u003eFeed your Dancy tree during the warmer spring and summer seasons with a citrus specific fertilizer once every six weeks. Espoma Citrus Tone is highly recommended but any organic fertilizer specifically for citrus should suffice. This will help keep your tree on a healthy growth cycle but also replenish the nutrients in the soil. During the fall and winter season, ease back to fertilizing once every 2-3 months. Once the tree has matured a bit and has got a few years on it, you can skip the cold season fertilization. The same fertilizing regimen should be followed for potted Dancy trees as well. Make sure to follow the application instructions written on the fertilizer bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003ePruning can be done at any time of the year for in ground planted Dancys except in the winter. Make 45-degree angle cuts to remove dead or crossing limbs and also to thin out the tree to allow more light to flow between the branches. “Leggy” looking branches may indicate that there is not enough light getting to the tree’s interior. After the tree fruits, remove any dead wood and ventilate the center of the tree. Remove suckers as they form\/grow from the base as they will steal away nutrients from the primary trunk of the tree. Pruning can be done at any time of the year for the potted Dancy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trees.com","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":13940887486516,"sku":"12549","price":128.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3 ft.","offer_id":13940887519284,"sku":"12550","price":117.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/8835\/2052\/products\/Dancy_Tangerine_FGT_600x600_9c83d5b7-8cc8-4a9d-a1e9-b2e684156cfb.jpg?v=1762198250"},{"product_id":"jackfruit-tree","title":"Jackfruit Tree","description":"\u003ch2\u003eUp to 100 Pounds of Fruit Each Season\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy Jackfruit Trees?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Jackfruit is easy to spot with its unique green rind, a large, oblong shape, and softly spiked exterior.

Although the tree will survive and grow in partial shade, it will not produce as many fruits as a tree grown in full sun. Lemon trees tend to be less cold-hardy than other citrus varieties, so ideally you should plant the Genoa lemon tree on the south side of a home or structure. Planting the tree close to a building helps provide the tree with additional frost protection.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Instructions: \u003c\/strong\u003e Plant the Genoa lemon tree in a location with well-draining soil. The tree will tolerate a wide range of soil conditions, but it prefers slightly acidic soil. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWhen planting a lemon tree, always plant the tree slightly higher than ground level. Dig the hole a little shallower than the length of the tree’s root ball. Place the rootball into the hole and firmly tamp the soil down around the tree’s root system. Add a two to three-inch layer of mulch across the soil’s surface after planting to help keep the tree evenly moist while it establishes its root system.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eContainer Growth:\u003c\/strong\u003e  The Genoa lemon tree will thrive in a container, which makes it an ideal tree choice for a patio or balcony garden. The container should be approximately 25 percent larger than the tree’s root ball. A clay pot is ideal because the sides breath, unlike plastic. Make sure there are drainage holes in the bottom of the pot to keep the tree’s roots from becoming waterlogged.  Once planted, the lemon tree should not require repotting for at least two to three years. Place the potted Genoa lemon tree in a location where it will receive seven to eight hours of sunlight per day. Water the tree when the first two inches of soil feels dry to the touch. Remember, a tree grown in a pot requires more frequent watering during a hot spell than a tree grown in the ground. Fertilize the potted lemon tree with a general purpose citrus fertilizer. Follow the directions on the fertilizer for application times and rates.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003e Water the lemon tree deeply once a week. During the first year, the soil should be kept evenly moist. Once the tree has established a sufficient root system, it can tolerate occasional drought. Established Genoa lemon trees prefer to be watered deeply at least once every ten days.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilization:\u003c\/strong\u003e  Feed the lemon tree a high nitrogen fertilizer that is manufactured for citrus trees. Apply the fertilizer every four weeks from winter through spring. Follow the manufacturer’s directions for application rates. During the summer and fall months, the tree will benefit from an application of fertilizer every six weeks. Applying a two or three-inch layer of organic material beneath the tree every month also helps naturally provide nutrients for the tree to maintain healthy growth.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePests and Diseases:\u003c\/strong\u003e A systemic insecticide helps protect the Genoa lemon tree from pests. Follows the insecticide instructions for application ratios. Often a black or gray powdery substance will appear on the tree’s leaves and stems. The powdery substance is normally a form of mildew that is often made worse by insects. If mildew should appear on the tree’s leaves, fruit or branches, a general purpose fungicide will normally cure the problem. When applying the fungicide, follow the manufacturer’s instructions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003e Lemon trees need to be pruned once every one or two years. The tree can be pruned at any time of the year, but ideally, you should prune right after harvesting to give the tree ample time to recuperate before producing a new crop. Lemon trees require a great deal of sunlight, so prune away areas of dense growth to allow light to flow through the tree’s branches and foliage. Cut the branch about an inch away from the tree’s trunk at an angle that is directed away from the tree. Do not prune more than one-third of the tree’s branches. The tree needs to always have at least three to five main branches to produce adequate fruit. Always remove all weak or damaged branches.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trees.com","offers":[{"title":"1-2 ft.","offer_id":13940907049012,"sku":"15616","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3 ft.","offer_id":43109929779262,"sku":"30126","price":109.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"3-4 ft.","offer_id":42730706829374,"sku":"31133","price":109.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"2-3 ft.

Select a container that is one size larger than the container it came in. Clay pots are recommended as they help drain the pot better, and allow for good air exchange within the pot. Your new potting mix should primarily contain a drainage aggregate and some organic matter. A good mix would contain equal parts of perlite, vermiculite, peat, and sterilized potting soil. Adding in some well matured compost as a portion of the peat component would have good results, though not necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top of the soil surface should be about an inch below the lip of the container so as to prevent overspill and enable even watering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFill your pot about 1\/3 with your new soil mix, and set your tree so that the soil level in the container you bought is about an inch below the top lip of the pot. Water the soil in and around the tree to settle it around the roots, then continue filling. Water thoroughly and evenly after planting, but do not saturate the soil to a point where it is ‘soggy’.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn future waterings, wait until the surface of the soil is dried out to about an inch or two to the touch. You may find that your container Lemon Tree may require frequent waterings, as many as 1-2 times per day. During the heat of the summer, allow the surface of the soil to dry out before watering. In the winter, the surface soil will not dry out as readily. Never allow your Lemon to be rooted in soggy soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour Ponderosa also needs humidity. One way to provide this is to have your container set inside a tray or larger (but shallow) container and cover the bottom of the tray with clean pebbles or small washed stone. Then set your container Lemon on top of the pebbles. Add water to the tray to almost cover the stone. Do not allow the Lemon Tree container to sit in water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse a liquid fertilizer specifically formulated for Citrus. When the tree is actively growing, feed according to label, twice monthly. In the winter, cut back fertilizer to once a month. Follow dilution recommendations closely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour indoor Ponderosa should be pruned before new growth initiates in the early spring. Always use clean and sharp tools. Remove crossing branches, and aim for an open, strong canopy to allow for good air circulation. Make your branch cuts all the way back to the originating shoot. To control overall growth, you can snip the tips of canopy growth by several inches once your tree is established and in the desired form. Remove low growing shoots below the lowest primary branches. You can remove damaged or dead shoots anytime during the year. You can also snip off erratic, long, or undesirable tips as you see them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce sustained temperatures drop below 50\u003csup\u003eo\u003c\/sup\u003eF, bring your Ponderosa indoors. Choose a brightly lit room, keeping it near a sunny window, and away from drafts. Ideal indoor temperatures for indoor citrus is around 65F during the day; and night time temperatures about 55-60F.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen returning your Ponderosa in the spring, do so in a manner to acclimate it slowly over a week or two. Do not begin this process until night time temperatures are consistently above 55F. When first taking out, place in a warm, but shady spot during the day; and then bring it inside for several days. Then expose to bright morning sun, moving to a shady area in the afternoon, then leave it outside for the next few days. After this point, you can give it the desired full sun location.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLemon trees love humidity.

Once drained, finish filling, water again thoroughly, and top off with soil, mounding the soil slightly around the base of the trunk and pack the last fill of soil well. Form a moat of about 3” high, and 8” wide at a circumference of about 2’ away from the tree.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFill your moat right after planting, and then again at 3 day intervals for the first two weeks of establishment.

Spread your mulch out to the dripline of the tree, at a depth of 3-4”, but keep the mulch about 12” away from the trunk of the tree to discourage disease, insects, and small rodents from damaging the base. Renovate your mulch each spring. Shallowly working in the mulch layer closest to the soil that has begun to rot down provides some organic matter, then apply your new mulch over it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eSee guidelines above for watering indoor Ponderosa. For outdoor plantings, water to an imaginary line about 12” past the dripline, all the way into the trunk. Soak thoroughly, evenly, slowly, and deeply. Salts are not good for the roots, and watering thoroughly helps leach them out of the rooting zone. Maintain a ‘moist’ soil, but do not allow it to become soggy. New plantings need frequent watering, every 2-3 days usually for the first 4-6 weeks. After that point, you can water every 3-6 days depending on the ‘feel’ of the soil. In the Tree’s first year, you should anticipate watering 2-3 times weekly, then dropping back to every week or two in the fall and winter. Water less frequently when rain events provide good water. In its second year, your intervals will drop to 1-2 per week in the summer, and 2-3 weeks in the winter. Add a week of interval once the trees are 3 years and older. These are guidelines. Let your weather and the ‘feel’ of the soil be your guide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilizing\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eThough not terribly high maintenance regarding fertility, your Ponderosa will give you a nice response when you fertilize the newly planted tree with about 1\/3 cup of 21-0-0 (ammonium sulfate) after new growth appears in April-May. Scatter the fertilizer evenly through the rooting zone of the tree out to the dripline and water it in thoroughly. Repeat this application once between August-September. Do not over fertilize.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the second and later years, apply fertilizer in January through February; April through May; and August through September (3 times per year). In the second year, use 2 cups per year of 21-0-0 evenly divided among the three application. In the third through the seven or eight year old tree, increase to 4 cups spread across the three applications per year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeed, Insects, and Diseases\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003eKeep the area free of weeds at all times, weeding manually.

It loves heat and humidity and thrives in zones 9-11, but can also be grown in a pot and brought indoors during the winter months. The green, glossy leaves make for a beautiful background against the fragrant flowers in the spring. Packed with vitamin C and fiber, the juicy, sweet fruit also has a deep red-orange flesh that is thin and easy to peel, making it a perfect snack for anyone on the go. Ready for harvesting around November-December, the Dancy Tangerine is self-fertile, but pair it with another tree for a higher yield of fruits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSeasonal Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dancy trees will do best in warmer climates as it is classified as a tropical plant. Zones 8 to 11 are ideal for outdoor planting. However, if you do experience cold winters, plant your Dancy tree in a container and bring it inside for the fall and winter seasons. We recommend planting in Spring through Fall for outdoors since they are sensitive to colder temperatures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelecting a location:\u003c\/strong\u003e Choose a location where your tree is going to get plenty of sunlight, 6-8 hours per day is best. They can tolerate some shade, but thrive in full sun. You’ll want to ensure trees are spaced 8-10 feet apart if planting more than one. These trees also do better in areas with high humidity so you may also need to create humidity for your tree by misting the leaves daily with water. Potted plants do enjoy a daily misting for humidity but placing a tray with rocks filled with water under the plant will feed humidity to the tree as the water evaporates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Directions (in Ground):\u003c\/strong\u003e If you are located in zones 8-11 and your winter temperatures stay consistently warm, your Dancy will do well being planting outside in the ground. Be sure the area has well draining soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Dig a hole twice as wide and just as deep as the root system.\u003cbr\u003e2) Place the tree in the hole and back fill it with your sandy, well-drained, acidic soil. If you have clay soil, try amending it with sand, stone, perlite or fine potting soil.\u003cbr\u003e3) Tamp the soil down as you backfill the hole to cut back on any pockets from forming.\u003cbr\u003e4) After planting, be sure to give your Dancy tree a deep watering for about 5 minutes. Mulching around the tree will help insulate the roots and keep your plant warm in the colder winter months as well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Instructions (potted):\u003c\/strong\u003e If your winter temperatures are consistently below 40 degrees, plant your tree in a container that can easily be brought outside in the summer months and inside in the winter. A planter with built-in casters is a good choice so it can easily be moved. Choose a pot slightly larger than what it was shipped in that has plenty of holes in the bottom to allow for drainage. Be sure to plant in well-draining potting soil preferably recommended for acid loving citrus plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1) Fill your pot halfway with soil. Remove the tree from its original pot and gently place it in the potting soil.\u003cbr\u003e2) Fill in around the tree with the remainder of the potting soil but be sure not to cover the grafted area of the tree. Leave about an inch from the soil surface to the rim of the pot for easy watering.\u003cbr\u003e3) Lightly pack down the soil. Immediately after planting, give your tree a deep watering until it flows from the holes in the bottom of the pot.\u003cbr\u003e4) Place your tree in an area of your home, preferably a south-facing window, where it is going to get plenty of sunlight. Supplement with a grow light if it will not receive at least 6-8 hours of sunlight a day. You may also need to create humidity for your tree by placing the pot on a saucer of pebbles or misting the leaves daily with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePollination assistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e You can pollinate your indoor trees by hand since most people do not keep a healthy bee population within their home. Simply take a small, dry, fine tipped paint brush and stick it into the center of the bloom. Swirl it around and collect the pollen on the brush. Go to the next bloom and repeat the process until every bloom has been treated. Do this once daily and don’t wash the paintbrush until after the blooms have been pollinated. The bloom will fall off naturally and the fruit will begin to form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWatering: \u003c\/strong\u003eDancys do not like wet feet. Be sure to give your tree a deep watering so that it can penetrate into the root system. After watering, allow the top 2-3 inches of the soil to dry out completely before watering again. Yellowing and droopy leaves is a common sign of over watering while brown, dry leaves are a sign of under watering. Mulching can help retain the soil moisture and also combat competing grasses\/weeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor potted Dancys, stick your index finger into the soil down to about 2 inches. If there is moisture present, hold off on watering until it feels more dry at that depth. When ready to water, stop once you see it escaping the drainage holes at the base of the pot.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilization: \u003c\/strong\u003eFeed your Dancy tree during the warmer spring and summer seasons with a citrus specific fertilizer once every six weeks. Espoma Citrus Tone is highly recommended but any organic fertilizer specifically for citrus should suffice. This will help keep your tree on a healthy growth cycle but also replenish the nutrients in the soil. During the fall and winter season, ease back to fertilizing once every 2-3 months. Once the tree has matured a bit and has got a few years on it, you can skip the cold season fertilization. The same fertilizing regimen should be followed for potted Dancy trees as well. Make sure to follow the application instructions written on the fertilizer bag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePruning: \u003c\/strong\u003ePruning can be done at any time of the year for in ground planted Dancys except in the winter. Make 45-degree angle cuts to remove dead or crossing limbs and also to thin out the tree to allow more light to flow between the branches. “Leggy” looking branches may indicate that there is not enough light getting to the tree’s interior. After the tree fruits, remove any dead wood and ventilate the center of the tree. Remove suckers as they form\/grow from the base as they will steal away nutrients from the primary trunk of the tree. Pruning can be done at any time of the year for the potted Dancy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trees.com","offers":[{"title":"2-3 ft","offer_id":41891091906622,"sku":"30043","price":102.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0059\/8835\/2052\/products\/Dancy_Tangerine_FGT_600x600_443b100a-04f7-4cb1-a5c4-1e07b8cb5266.jpg?v=1762198352"},{"product_id":"sugar-apple-tree","title":"Sugar Apple (Sweetsop) Tree","description":"\u003ch2\u003eProduces Tons Of Delicious, Sweet And Creamy Fruit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sugar Apple tree, also known as the 'annona squamosal', is a unique tropical tree that's the clear winner amongst its competition because it produces a distinctive fruit with an individual look and tropical flavor that blows people away.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther common names for the Sugar Apple Tree include Sweetsop Tree, Custard Apple Tree, Bullock's Heart, and Annona Tree.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSugar apples taste like a sweet vanilla custard with a hint of pineapple.\u003c\/strong\u003e Its smooth and slightly grainy texture makes this fruit a delight to snack on.
