Actually, we have a variety of wild mountain apples... But i was talking about 'Apple banana'..
To my knowledge, you are correct! They need a frost my island cant provide.
Thanks for the kind words friend!
There are a few apples that will grow quite nicely on the islands with a little work. They do need a little bit of a cooler time to make them cycle into dormancy, but I think that HI has a wet season that gets a little cooler toward Nov/Dec/Jan, so that should be enough.
well there I go running my mouth before I know what someones talking about
When I lived in Okinawa we had pear apples. I assumed they grew in a tropical place. I have not had them since. They were the best apples I ever had.

Cool! If I had my own place... I would do more with trees. Some just take to long! I'd never see the fruit... Papaya's are fast though!
Hehe! Its fine! Just a lil' misunderstanding!well there I go running my mouth before I know what someones talking about
Hm... I know what your talking about, so good with lihing! Now I'm hungry!When I lived in Okinawa we had pear apples. I assumed they grew in a tropical place. I have not had them since. They were the best apples I ever had.
Hello world!Welcome to my world!!
Hm.. Okinawa Pear apple, Japanese Pear.... I think were all talking about the same fruit. I've always heard it called Korean Pears... Love them.
Okay! So... I've harvested the Church... Put out the Dr. Grinspoon mom... Wow, she has a lot more growth dead than I thought! Very discouraging. The cutting is doing significantly better... Gonna give the mom about two weeks to see how she is shaping up... Being a low yielder, if half her nodes are lost... I'm not wasting nearly six months on it. That just means the cutting has to grow that much bigger
It would be nice, I'll be checking in with a friend about the GDP cuttings and when that will happen... In the next day or two.
I'd kind of prefer them to wait til next year to start them... So hopefully they are still running their Kauai Electrics... Then I can take a cutting from OMM and pop a new seed this year
. I want a good stock of variety! Ahem, a pound of everything please!

Hi THsea.....check your PM basket! 
My favorite is lilikoi can not get enough of it.
Hopefully I can get my vine to produce half as much as all the wild vines in hawaii.

Got it!Hi THsea.....check your PM basket!
Oh man, after we talked... I had to go pick up my mother's car. She was having something done to her eye and they ripped her retina! My step-father is taking her to town.. The hospital there will work on it... Yikes! Scary stuff.
Lilikoi? Maybe I should grow some of that too..
Thanks for the idea!I do stay Oahu

Hey guys, I just jarred the last of the Church... Got a bit over an ounce off of what was left of her Not bad!
Harvesting the rest of the ASHaze on the 7th... So that will be fun. I might have a very light issue with powdery mildew on the cutting of Dr. Grinspoon.... But I'm 70% sure it isnt... I have products to treat it, so I might treat just incase... Its still in veg, and will be for a long while... So I don't feel to weird about treating.
My other plants are starting to sprout! Hurray! Basils and Lettuce's are coming up! Still waiting on the friggen cilantro.

Coriander is a really hard seed coat, and some slow starting seeds... but once it starts it EXPLODES to life. It can even be perennialized. I can eat cilantro by itself. Just some tasty stuff... And grats on the Queen Thai! That one get a pretty purple under the leaves and along the edges. I think the serrated edges on that basil are just awesome to look at as well.
