Any experience with Hymenea Courbaril?
« on: November 14, 2013, 08:43:24 PM »
I have a strong desire to cultivate some Hymenae Courbaril trees. I live in a 9b hardiness zone, with a quite dry atmosphere. The foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains in California. These trees grow in the rainforest, and can learn to adapt very well, but somehow I have doubts about this environment. Do you think I will be in over my head by attempting to grow this?

No idea about hardiness and no idea about it surviving but DEFINATELY have a crack at it!
Growing anything is a gamble and the absolute worst thing that can happen is failure, and at the end of the day you don't have it.
In that case nothing changed  :D

Sucks, but AU-OS trade isn't cost effective or reliable anymore. Aussie trade encouraged, especially for cactus, dragonfruit, and colour fruited columns.

Not too sure how it will do in the foothills but I do know of a few closer to the coast. Imagine it would need a greenhouse when they are young but after that it should do fine.
