- We obtained Black Prince Avocado variety last year and at first didn't know much about it. Until we tried the first fruit! The fruit was large, oval, green and slightly pebbly. We were not sure if it would taste like some green avocados - watery and less buttery?
- The fruit turned black couple days after it was picked, ripened and softened. We were pleasantly surprised, Black Prince deserves its title!
- The fruit pulp is thick, and has a rich, nutty flavor. The little trees grew this year vigorously and didn't show any bug or deficiency problems. Superior variety for a backyard grower! Giving it 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
- We have Black Prince Avocado in 3 gal pots, as well as in XX-Large size for local pick up - for those who want a large fruiting size tree, please contact our Garden Center to pre-order from our Growing Farm (B-Farm). It can be delivered and installed for you!

- 🍷 Araca Pera, or Brazilian Guava tree (Psidium x angulatum), is a unique Guava hybrid of a flavorful wild guava from the Brazilian Amazon which is rare in cultivation.
- 🍷 These fruit are 1.5-2", with an acidic, sour guava-like flavor. Its juice is concentrated and must be diluted and sweetened to produce a delicious drink.
- 🍷 It is the major source of a special Guava Wine production. Our favorite Guava Wine is from Schnebly Redland's Winery - this is where we obtained the seeds from their mother plants. This refreshing and vibrant rose wine is full of flavor and has a bouquet that never stops.
- 🍷 The fruit is processed into ice cream sorbet, gelatins and candies.
- 🍷 A great container specimen or a bushy tree for frost-free gardens.

🍉 Did you know you could enjoy fresh guava juice from your own tree?
🍉 The 1-3 gal plant will start fruiting for you in no time. And you can expect a large crop in just a couple of seasons.
🍉 Guava trees thrive in mild climates with frost-free winters, but can tolerate light frost once established. And if you live in a colder climate - no worries. Guava is the perfect container fruit tree. You can bring it inside during cold nights and still enjoy fresh fruit every year.
🍉 Just don't forget to water - guavas are heavy drinkers.

- 🍉 Very rare variety of Guava tree - Honey Moon - is a unique variegated guava with the sweetest fruit we ever tasted.
- 🍉 Fruit is pear-shaped and variegated (white/green striped) outside when unripe, turning bright yellow when ripe. The flesh is pink, very aromatic, sweet and delicious, and contains only a few seeds that separate from pulp easily.
- 🍉 This variety is resistant to insects and worms.
- 🍉 Bushy, full tree with large, broad, variegated leaves. Surprisingly for a variegated form (which are usually slow and tender), this variegated beauty is very healthy, strong, vigorous and fasts growing.
- 🍉 The plant flowers and fruits in small size, perfect for containers. If planted in the ground, the tree grows small to medium size (10-15 ft) with has nice, symmetrical bushy shape.
- 🍉 Everbearing, very reliable producer, the plant constantly has fruit, buds or flowers.

- Phyllanthus acidus - Otaheite Gooseberry, Amlak - is very close related to the famous Phyllanthus emblica (Amla, Amlaki), however it is much hardier plant.
- Known as Amritphala in Sanskrit, which literally means the fruit of heaven or nectar fruit. It is so called because it is rich in many desirable properties, including medicinal.
- Small to medium in size tree, under 20 feet, very bushy and pretty.
- Fruits are borne in loose clusters, which hang from the tree trunk and main branches. Fruits are very acidic and tart, and esteemed for jellies, preserves and pastries.
- There are no commercial plantings; only in home gardens.
- The Amla fruit paste is a major ingredient of Chavyanprash, a popular Ayurvedic tonic. It is the richest source of vitamin C. Phyllanthus acidus is called Ari Nelli in Tamil, and the Phyllanthus emblica (Amlaki) is Muzhu Nelli in Tamil. Muzhu Nelli is even richer in Vitamin C etc.
