    While walking to library, saw a tree that looks similar to your Capulin Cherry, has droopy limbs, a little like a weeping willow, same flower raceme, and is ~10'. Wonder if can propagate as stems growing across sidewalk. It doesnt look great this year as has yellow spots on leaves .

    • @TropicalCentralValley
      @TropicalCentralValley  Месяц назад +1

      From what I’m told, it may be propagated from cuttings, though, I have not personally tried.
      Alternatively, every once in a while, your local Lowe’s or Home Depot may carry them. I have seen a few Capulin Cherry trees at my Lowe’s.

    The capulin cherries are very, very good when dead ripe. It's a rum cherry and those are the best of the wild cherries. Spanish took the cherry everywhere, and now in Equator, they have a variety that's as large as a small plum. Mine is the old Aztec variety but it produces very well. Only thing, if we get wind storms (south central Arizona) it knocks the cherries off. good video and thank you.

As far as the Jamun tree never heard of it until I looked at your video. I googled for information and by the description on the internet I would not bother planting it. I guess it always comes down to a persons taste and what they enjoy eating.

    • @TropicalCentralValley
      @TropicalCentralValley  Год назад +2

      My Capulin Cherry tree is doing awesome. As expected, handles the frost without any damage to the foliage.
      The tree itself grows insanely fast, its approaching 18 feet tall now, and it’s only a few years old since planted in the ground.
      It handles my hard clay soil without any issues, though, as with all of my tropical fruit trees, I do amend the soil when planting.
      In my climate, it flowers and sets fruit once per year. My tree started producing fruits the second year it was in the ground. Its a very heavy producer of fruits, though, the birds will likely get to most of them, particularly near the top.

    • @TropicalCentralValley
      @TropicalCentralValley  Год назад +1

      Assuming it’s not grafted, it may simply be focusing on its root establishments. My loquat does this, then explodes in growth in year 3-4.
      My grafted jamun started growing exponentially from year one when placed in the ground.
      If yours is grafted, try increasing your fertilizing your schedule, particularly with nitrogen.

    Hi. So happy I found your video! I googled "will a Capulin Cherry grow in clay soil?" and your video was in the top results. I'm in zone 9B with very clay soil. I've been mixing in fast acting gypsum in the bottom of the holes I'm digging for trees bc I'm afraid my soil is not well-draining enough. Water will sit sometimes for 24 to 48 hours in dug holes. If you have clay soil, what are your tips for creating a successful soil bed for your trees? Thank you! So happy I found your channel.

    • @TropicalCentralValley
      @TropicalCentralValley  2 года назад +2

      Thank you. The best method, though a bit slow is to apply a generous layer of mulch (primarily wood chip) on top of your native soil. As the fungus breaks down the mulch, it releases nutrient into the soil. This process may take half a year or more. The mulch also provides a nice living environment for many insects and worms. As your yard attracts worms, they naturally work your soil with hundreds/thousands of worm tunnels. This aids in drainage and aeration.
      In my yard, at any given time, I have about a foot of mulch which I continuously reapply annually.

      I personally like the fruits.
      My only complaints, the fruits are small, almost tiny, so you’ll need to collect many to make it a substantial feast.
      Concerning collecting of the fruits, due to the super growing nature of the tree, many of the fruits are near the taller branches. It makes it difficult to harvest.

      The Duhat tree propagates easily from cuttings. They also germinate easily from seeds as well.
      The only downside, regardless of the method of propagation is that it does take the tree a very, very long time before it produces fruits.
