    Miguel PT from Portugal here. At some point in this video Rodney said he has one "Nelita" tree 😊 actually I gave that name to a Eugenia calycina variety from my personal mirtacea collection some years ago and now it always makes me smile when I see rare fruit people keep using it all around the world 😊😊😊😊 congratulations and just keep up the good work Mr. Rodney!

      The last couple of years I take all my seeds and pits from 🍒 orange 🍊 🍋 🥭 avocado and peaches and shove them in fort in the pots or the yard some where and I've got so many fruit trees everywhere popping up it's going to take a couple more years before they bare fruit

      Yes, he needs more room. Even for pots. Having fruit trees does not necessarily mean having fruit. If they are not producing, what is the point. I will not keep a plant that does not produce.

    Inspiring! I began a similar journey with wild foraged pawpaw seeds. Now I have everything from acacado, goji, pomegranate, & loquat. Wild foraged orange trees are my favorite so far. During the last freeze I lost all but one papaya, so starting over with those. I have over 100 tiny dragon fruit and just added blueberries. Nothing more magical than grazing through my own food Forest. I’m also growing in Two states. For twenty years I have let almost 300 acres go to forest, but I plan to take a lot of my SC trees to a green house in KY soon. But your trees!!!! Inspiring!
