I think it’s really cool that these plants don’t even look like food. Say you’re in a survival situation, nobody would come and take your food. People know what tomatoes look like, these things I would have no idea that it wasn’t just a normal tree.

Can you believe we have a 'tropical' state in America!!?? !! We have dozens of papaya right now and the trees/vines/bushes have been dripping with bananas, mangos, passion fruit, dragon fruit and peanut butter fruit. I've been making my own greens powder from katuk, sissoo, sweet potato leaves, hibiscus leaves and moringa. Katuk is my FAVORITE! I also fell in love with the Jamaican strawberry tree this year (cotton candy berries??!!) and use the leaves as a base for tea with cranberry hibiscus and bidens - so delicious and medicinal. Florida is a mystical and magical land full of plants that love to connect with us ;)

Problem is the soil or lack of it. I had a garden while growing up in Kentucky and we never had soil issues. Here in the area Pete lives, same as me, it's sand. I had to add good soil to a lot of my garden. Compost has been hard to get down for me but I'm trying. One cool thing is growing avacado trees. They grow so well here.

Very nice video! I'm from Bangalore, India, where we have very similar temperatures to Miami, Florida. (Hovering between 60F to 90c most of the year) I highly recommend growing Roselle (Gongura leaves in India) used for everything from fresh dips to spicy curries & Pigeon Peas (25% protein!). I grow them hydroponically in 55ltr containers, they grow in almost any type of soil with no care. Also grow lots of herbs and spices to augment health and to prevent deficiencies, most of them will grow really well in Florida weather. Pigeon peas and Roselle leaves cooked together along with some garlic, ginger, turmeric & black pepper tastes absolutely amazing.

I have all except Miami Spinach and Edible Hibiscus and I'm not sure if what I have is yucca or taro as I haven't learned to use it yet. Green papaya is fabulous green, maybe even better than ripe. Female papayas, bananas, and katuk live in a colony together and a little ways away is a male papaya (that produced a fruit this year!) near my moringa in dappled sun. I've got Chaya as part of a privacy border as well as inside the yarden for eating and I've never seen a flower. Okinawan is doing well here, Longevity disappeared a while ago. I'm in north central Florida. Thanks!

What a great episode! Just a few gentle reminders : green papayas are good to eat in a salad etc - BUT ladies trying to get pregnant or pregnant ladies should eat only small amounts or avoid as it can lead miscarriage. If the papaya is ripe - eat in moderation as overconsumption can give a person diarrhea.Over consumption of moringa leaves is not good for people who suffer from high blood pressure. Food is medicine - but the flip side is that some herbs & vegetable & fruits can negative side effects if overconsumed or a person has some pre-existing health conditions. In south east asia where im from most of this knowledge is fading - i was lucky to have a grandmother who taught me some of this folk "medicine".

I love your knowledge and input, you always have such epic videos. We live in Australia near Brisbane and it works very similar here, even where we are is more drought like...I never water sweet potatoe, cassava, okinawa, hibiscus etc. and they keep growing. Moringa seems to like a good amount of water at the beginning, first few weeks and then it also just keeps on growing. Chaya and katuk is what I like to try this year. I have done research on all the perennials they grow in Africa and other countries to always have food even with little water and clay soil. Cassava has been epic helper to break open the soil and improve the quality, so sweet potatoe. ECHO has a great video on all these perennials as well, that's how I found Katuk and Chaya in the first place. Another Australian gardener said winter melone (wax gourd) is an awesome easy grown vegetable too, instead of zucchini. Pigeon pea grows super easy here too and survives even when we had the drought. Tannier, Aibika, Haitian basked vine, Malabar spinach and yams (greater yam, winged yam, cocoyam) I like to try too this Spring.

You're missing the point. Plant these self sufficient plants at your house as landscaping. If there's ever another greater depression, you'll be saved by your yard.

This is _really_ good information. But I am looking for fruiting trees/plants than are a good match for Punta Gorda, which is where my mom is located. I've planted a couple varieties of prickly pear (that I smuggled there from CA in a pizza box) that are doing phenomenal. I planted the pads in December, and they've already tripled in number. I also started 2 LSU Purple figs, and those are thriving too. The RubyCrisp muscadine is beginning to work its way up the trellis I built. It is not of major concern and should also be OK since it is native to that area. I planted a 6" loquat in a pot (for now--and that I also smuggled from CA) that is in very poor condition. I'm not there and can only guide her from the pictures she sends. It was in a black pot, so I think the roots got cooked and now have root rot. My question is this: should the loquat not survive until I return in November, what other fruiting plants/tree(s) can be grown in her area that require minimal care, have high disease/insect/varmint resistance, and don't grow to be huge behemoths? I know cactus are "idiot proof" with figs being a close second. I really like California Date Palms, but don't think they will grow there, with the dampl climate and 2-3' water table. She is a senior, and I want to make this easy for her. She's never grown any food/fruit bearing plants, but we gotta take advantage of the real estate and the weather down there!

Katuk is really great for breastfeeding mom. At first my baby had to bottle fed because I barely produce any milk. Then I started eating katuk, after 2 days my problem is solved. And I didn't need to buy formula at all since then

Why not roselle? The leaves are edible and unlike cranberry hibiscus it also have edible fruits.

It is attacked by nematodes. Hibiscus acetosella doesn't seem to be. If you are on clay or can control the wormmies, H. sabharrifa would probably be a great choice.

Which of these would be successful in a container or a pot? thanks for sharing. Also, if you can let me know if it’s best to plant basil in the sun or shade? I am in Fort Myers. Same question for thyme.Thank you.
