Hey Jacqueline had to let you know your videos have made my last few months bearable after receiving a rare cancer diagnosis in Sept I had to give up this Falls garden due too side effects from chemo and recent surgery. I look forward to your sweet and bubbly personality daily now to get me through this recovery, best medicine for this Holiday season! Merry Christmas to you and your family, and thank you for all the work you've put into turning out these videos. Many Blessings!

It's the Chickasaw Plum that suckers a lot but the Flatwoods Plum is basically all seed and no pulp. The Chickasaw Plum is named after the Chickasaws that ate it extensively because it was 'meatier'.

@mwnemo Жыл бұрын

I agree, flatwoods plum is a better choice for feeding birds as a landscape plant in my opinion. Does not sucker as much and has small fruit perfect for birds.

Touche on papaya, very few people know about the seeds found in Calusa trash sites. But a couple things you may or may not have known. Datil peppers were until recently thought to be an import from Cuba by early Spanish explorers. However, when they (I think UF) did a genetic study of the pepper they found it to be its own species that is found no where else in the world, hence native to Florida. In addition the seminole pumpkin is likely native. There is evidence the Tomoka Tribe grew them in Northeast Florida, one of the first explorers to document traveling through Florida mentioned seeing hanging pumpkins along the St John's River and also near Lake Okeechobee. The Seminoles found the pumpkins growing north of Tampa and named the area Chassahowitzka loosely translated to hanging pumpkins.

Thanks to the algorithm for pushing me this way. Great video :)

@EmmVee369 3 ай бұрын

Chassahowitzka (a river and preserve on the gulf coast just south of Crystal River) means "pumpkin hanging place" in the FL dialect of the Seminole language. Along that river tribes grew the "seminole" pumpkins trellised up the trees instead of on the ground. so while still not helping on date issue, they were grown at least that far down into central FL.

I tried Cocoplum right by my house, and the hard freezes took them out. None survived. However the sea grapes froze back, but returned from the roots. But never grew tall enough by the following winter to ever flower. I eventually got rid of them. My focus was on hardier plants for my area.

Sorry this is not the native Maypop, but those who really want to grow a passionfruit in Florida may want to try the Brazilian yellow variety. It is so vigorous, it outgrows the purple variety 3X faster; take that, you munching bugs!. Many leaves are bigger than my hand, and in 7 months of actual growing (meaning semi-regular water and occasional compost when soil level dropped in the container), it produced all sorts of flower buds. It unfortunately got chopped for Ian, cause my trellis was too flimsy, but has since grown to cover the trellis again, even if no more flowers this year. I have seen it producing so much fruit in a Central Florida yard that the owner just lets the fruit drop after selecting the choice ones for freezing. Fruit is large, at least 5" long, lots of pulp, but more tart than purple passionfruit. Another fab video, Jaqueline! My Xmas list runneth over!
