One of John Piconi's Jakfruits recently picked ready to be sold at the Byron Bay Farmers Markets. John is experimenting with a range of selections that will perform in northern NSW. Recently we grafted a pink fleshed selection with very large arils for John, hopefully it will be a winner for him. Besides selling his Jakfruits as a fresh fruit he also has been drying the arils with the seeds removed, absolutely delicous. If you ever have the opportunity to be in Byron Bay on a Thursday morning visit his stall at the Byron Bay Organic Farmers Market.

I lived in Thailand for 2 years and they grow like weeds there. The love lots of water and mulch. I liked the rubbery variety not the soft one. A jackfruit I got from subtropical world is growing well here in Brisbane. Time: Monday, March 08, 2010
