Tropical Fruit Porn

Well that certainly is a catchy title, isn't it? I was surfing so many websites for information regarding tropical fruits that would grow in SoCal, that I came to refer to my obsession as "fruit tree porn".

Finally, on October 2nd, 2016, I visited Papaya Tree Nursery in Granada Hills to meet with Alex and purchase my first round of tropical plants. He was an amazing resource and I felt confident with the purchases I made:

2 - "Big Red" passionfruit vines. About 3' tall with lots of new growth.

1 - "Goldfinger" banana tree. About 2.5' tall.

1 - "Kensington Pride" mango tree. About 4' tall and showing lots of new growth.

All the plants seemed to do well after transport. Now to figure out where to put them.
