but I was just suggesting that if they are thatclose the nuytion density, and with the shallow depth of the fertile soil will influence the vitality of2 trees. In Jamaic athey would have tried to transplant oine (space allowed) even if it is killed inthe process.One ackee tree in such lilited area, will bear much more fruits than 2 will.
Anyway good luck and enjoy your ackees.</div></div>

I thought about taking one out due to the size the trees get, but, after the one blew over in the hurricane I figured I should keep both...couldn't think of the possiblity of not having at least one.

Ok you no know why you granny kill them, One probably always bear and then the next and as soon as drought take them the simply lack enough nutrients and then died, because enough space did not exist to share the density of nutrients in the soil.
If they were bearing as they normally would of properly spaced, she would not kill them, since the fruits would justify the leaves.

That is absolute too. <div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: missus_vegas</div><div class="ubbcode-body">boy u can mek some absolute statements sah. mi use to have two ackee tree inna mi yard close enuff together dat as a child i could do the splits and balance between each tree.....dem use to bear like crazy.

tink mi granny kill dem now doe cus she cyan badda with the leaves. </div></div> </div></div>

Re: A Tale of Two Ackee

Did you kno wthat the largest and most powerful farmersin Jamaic aare phisicians??
a lot of the politiciansare physicians too.

The reasoin is because taking care of planys is somewhat similar to taking care of people.

ever thought of that?

If you can keep people healthy is does not take too muchmore to do plants if you are serious about it.
So i could be both...

Re: A Tale of Two Ackee

It shouldn't hurt to try. since you are in the same zone as the Dude.
The onlt difference would be he has limestone base,beilg on the Keys.
while you may have peat base, being on the flood plains.I may be more about the snap freezes, that Florida tend to get some winters, whenthey have to spray the oranges.
and if the trees can withstand them and survive.<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Seveen</div><div class="ubbcode-body">i wonder if ackee grows in my zone

Seveen, I'm not sure where you live, but if you're in South Florida, most likely it will...and you and anyone else are welcome to a free tree...I regularlly dig up the seedlings that fall and sprout under the trees, re-pot them, and give them away. I can also carry them up to the mainland as I'm often in the Ft Lauderdale/Deerfield Beach area.
