What if you plant them from seed? Will they be identical to the parent plants?

[@Pepesplants]

I have some pods of the species on the way. Will be planting them next week. My understanding is yes they will. Keep an eye on this channel. Update on planting the seeds end of next month. Thanks for your great question.

[@VanillapAndCacao]

Isn't it Theobroma bicolor?

[@Pepesplants]

No that's a different species.

@@Pepesplants interesting. I am in a country where cocoa does not grow. But I have a few cocoa trees and I take care of them in the greenhouse I built at home. I think I will have my first fruits by next summer. I have received dozens of cocoa saplings and this is the first time I have witnessed something like this. how is the fruit

@@VanillapAndCacao This tree is new to me. Very little information available. Will keep everyone posted as they develop. Thanks for you comments and interest in my channel.
