🧵🪡

This thread is about plants that I tried this year and won’t try again next year as well as ones that did really well.

East coast North America, zone 8/9, rainfall 120cm.

*Updated with pics

A very dark pink to red Jamaican cherry being held over a very green citrus leaf (red pomelo). Both the berry and citrus leaf are covered in water droplets bc it was raining.
Looks like a pic taken from outer space. Bright yellow, petals frame the pic and the circle around a center that is dark maroon. There is a fuzzy staminal column that ends with a dark fuzzy stigma bordered with brilliant yellow anthers. The stigma is so dark red it is almost black. The flower is a Nkruma Tenten okra.
A purple curry leaf berry surrounded by native physalis still in yellow, papery, husks, katuk leaves, and huazontle leaves.
On a wooden cutting board is an assortment of leaves, peas, seed pods, cucumbers, radish, peppers and flowers.

26/ jackfruit and kuai muk

Both of these artocarpus do well in heat and survive storms pretty well. Not water hogs. Mine are grown in mostly sun. Bring the jackfruit in when temps go below 40F and the kuai muk if below 32F.

Jackfruit leaf is edible (see pinned thread) but kuai muk is not. Kuai muk will make friends with beans when grown in the same pot but the jackfruit’s roots uses up all the space.

Leaves of kuai muk and jackfruit reaching towards a blue cloudy sky taken from below. The kuai muk is to the left and the jackfruit dominates the photo from the right. The leaves are rigid and well-defined against the sky. The leaves of kuai muk are skinny lanceolate and some have been nibbled by katydids. The jackfruit are round and deeply veined. The kuai muk are more grass green while the jackfruit are more emerald.
