❤ Beautiful garden God bless. I use to live in Apopka but my HOA didn't let me grow anything. Now I live in Broward and I have 3 coconut Palm trees, 4 avocado, bananas, 3 mango trees, and everything else under the sun. I love my jungle. My brother still lives in Orlando and he has mango, avocado, banana and tamarind tree.

[@clarecampbell4481]

That's amazing!

[@debibrown5568]

I live in Polk County Florida. I have 2 mango trees, 2 avocado, 2 Star Fruit, papayas, several bananas, ginep ( mammicillo, quenepa, Spanish lime) pineapples, morninga tree, longevity spinach, mulberry, Loquat,so far the cold hasn’t hurt any of my trees. Looking to add to the food forest

[@phatbruno]

Awesome. Hopefully you will get to keep all of it. My mom had an avocado and a mango tree that died after 3 to 4 years when we had a bad winter in Orlando about 20 years ago.

[@DancingTreetopsFamilyFarm]

The seedling mangos are inspiring.

[@slim9978]

I am surprised because I lived in Orlando in the 80ties and they said mangoes could not grow because of the cold there was no mangoe tree

[@user-kt4pb3oj6f]

Those twisted knotted roots are root knot nematodes. Affects peppers, okra, tomatoes etc. plant marigolds around the plants. In the planting hole put crab meal before planting, best to get rid of the peppers and try planting in a new area with marigolds and crab meal. Or plant in a pot using fresh bought soil.

Very interesting and informative video. In Jamaica king of the forest is used for high blood pressure - use it to make a tea.

[@jamaicannana9012]

First time seeing your channel and love this type of content. I just planted some fruit trees, I had to start over as I sold my house and purchased a new one. I planted Ackee, mangoes, Moringa, Loquat, Leeche, sour sop, sugar apples, Bananas, plantain, Cassava, Tamarind, papaya, ginger, Leaf of life, Guniea hen, mint, peach, pineapple, pumpkin and sweet potatoes from the islands, fever grass and different herbs. Some I had in pots from my old house. I live in Central Florida also in Tavares.

The long beans he describe could very well be cow peas (Chinese name) or bora (Guyanese call them). We cut them up and fry/cook it with meat. We then eat it with roti or on white rice.

[@paulinazajaczkowska1878]

wow great!!!!

Awesome!

Great work brother

[@henrystyle4879]

My uncle has a ackee tree in fort lauderdale since the 80s. Massive ackee and mango tree.

[@miket.9450]

That Ethiopian Apple is similar to the Malay Apple or Macopa in the Philippines.

[@backyardfarmerpat]

Awesome food forest ❤

[@andrebaptiste]

Thank you 😋

[@paulg3012]

Nice to see the Ithiopian apple, I think it will bear here in Bermuda since rose apple does well here. Beautiful vineyard bredrin.

[@HolisticHealthHub-hi4xl]

The correct name is Otaheiti apple or Malay apple.

[@paulg3012]

@@HolisticHealthHub-hi4xl We Rasta modify names and words.

[@HolisticHealthHub-hi4xl]

@@paulg3012 I understand Rastafarian lingo but the audience is international and if they go to search for the tree or fruit by that name no one will know what they are talking about. Also, if they search for that name on the internet they will not find it.

[@paulg3012]

@@HolisticHealthHub-hi4xl Point taken but the Ras giving the tour referred to it as Ethiopian so I'm just backing him up.

[@glodibok]

Goals!! 🔥

[@elgranjero2284]

It is actually called. Otaheite apple. Other names are Malay apple, mountain apple, pink satin-ash, plumrose and pommerac.

[@resukepowell9811]

Thanks for sharing! I love this especially to see the Otaheite apple tree flowering. How old is this video because of the Mangoes flowering?

[@andrebaptiste]

It’s a about 3 mos old

I am a Jamaican in Ocala and want some calaloo seeds. Where can I find them to buy? Thank you. BTW. Beautiful tour.

I have the red callaloo. If you’re ever in Orlando come by and I’ll give you some

[@HolisticHealthHub-hi4xl]

You can order online from Baker's Creek Heirloom seeds for about $3. They call it Amaranth and there are red and green varieties.

[@feistylilmama2248]

Maybe you can tell him about this comment or send it to him but he should label his trees so that if anything happened to him his family can know how to take care of the trees after doing research to keep his Garden Legacy going I'm feeding his family❤❤❤

[@andrebaptiste]

Yes. I’ll work on that this winter

[@improvisedsurvival5967]

Had a mulberry had to cut it down was way to big and roots were cracking house foundation. Someone planted it years ago about 12 ft from the house. Still got berries in the fridge. Tropical stuff don’t work up here in mass. Cranberries work good though if you wanna put a bog in. Lotta work.

[@feistylilmama2248]

Maybe in invite him❤😊 to your home so he can help you move some plants around to replant or just to give you some suggestions

[@sarahchavarria4017]

[@silentplayert9818]

Are those that are not bearing close to street lights? I found out years ago, light at nights affects them. Coconut tree takes 5 years to produce coconut.

[@LindaMorgan-nh3pl]

When the tmp dip to potential freezing try the small Christmas tree lights

[@andrebaptiste]

For me I have too many trees too far from the house for that to be practical.

[@shirleyfrancis4515]

Otahithe apples are so juicy and delicious. Not sure if he said otahithe or Ethiopian apple.

[@andrebaptiste]

Otahithe

[@iricaja]

Any chance of me getting some black mangoes, turpentine and ackee in the pods for purchase? I had all those and a lot of other fruit trees in Jamaica.

[@andrebaptiste]

I have turpentine and a small ackee tree. But not blackies

[@iricaja]

@@andrebaptiste if you would like to sell me some. Please provide an email contact. Thank you :)

[@Mr.Mashup]

I think the reason you think the loquat fruit taste different one sweet and the other tart is because one is a loquat and the other a kumquat

[@andrebaptiste]

No kumquats are citrus and completely different fruits not even in the same family.

[@henrystyle4879]

And coconut. I forgot. Lol

[@feistylilmama2248]

Does this guy hve a channel too.

[@Joshsmoove]

Does he protect the coconut tree? I'm in apopka as well. Is his Olive bearing?

[@andrebaptiste]

Yes he protects it. Not sure if he’s gotten olives yet

[@Joshsmoove]

@@andrebaptiste thanks for your reply.

Please send ne some if your mangoes, please please the crap they sre selling in NY is not palatable.
