Here's the list of my newest acquisitions: Blue Grape - Myrciaria vexator, Cas Guava - Psidium friedrichshalianum, Vietnamese Pomegranate - Punica granatum, White Sapote "SES 2" - Casimiroa edulis, Giant Granadilla - Passiflora quadrangularis, Ilama "Red" - Annona diversifolia, Malabar Spinach -Basella alba, a beautiful Cassia sp., Biriba - Rollinia deliciosa (seeds) & Custard Apple "Red" - Annona reticulata (seeds).
I can sum it all up in one easy word, YUM!!!!!!
