Tropical fruits and Veggies

The vegetables found here are for the most part photographed at farmer's markets in Hawaii or on the mainland, community gardens, or vegetable stalls at Chinatowns. You wont find them waxed, polished, or wrapped in plastic. These are the real stuff. Aloha and thanks for stopping by.

Breadfruit seeds are not easy to come by.
You may try:http://www.tropilab.com/breadfruit.html.
They have seeds for a limited number of varieties. I do not know their shipping policy.
Good Luck

I have not seen a red skinned cherimoya. If I do I will most certainly photograph it.
Thanks for viewing.

pbase.com - browsing is a pleasure as one can observe almost all the stages related to the development of flowers, from buds to full bloom, and the fruits from young to mature, also cutopen to observe the interior. Kudos to the work you have done.
