Two neighbors in a not very welcoming tree
Tumblr media
Some time after I found this whole neighborhood in this single tree. 4 nests, maybe 5, I couldn't get closer
Tumblr media
And apparently its already jambo (Syzygium) time! I love the flowers of the white and pink variety, this one is not yet in my fruit tree map. This spring is going to be fruitful

Subterranean Wonders: The Fascinating Resilience of African Geoxyles 
Geoxyles, a distinctive feature of Afrotropical savannas and grasslands, are a type of tree that survives recurrent disturbances by resprouting from large belowground woody structures. A new study by Anya Courtenay and colleagues, published in Annals of Botany, found that underground trees inhabit significantly distinct and extreme environments relative to their taller, woody tree/shrub…

Went to pick up the granddaughter and they had this Lilly Pilly “Cascade” planted as a hedge in their car park. (Syzygium luehmannii-x-wilsonii lilly pilly) these Australian natives are quite useful because they don’t need much water and they have attractive new foliage, as well as flowers and berries. This as you can see is a hybrid. #Cascade #LillyPilly #Syzygium #native #Australian #bush #waterwise (at Belmont, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/Clp2cejPUks/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thinking about it, out backyard is not even that big, but we have a lot of stuff growing in there. There are two mango trees, a small banana patch, an acerola tree, a cashew tree, a young avocado tree, a bunch of cassava shrubs (we dug up some over the weekend), there's even some corn now. Oh, there's also the rose apple seedling I planted a while ago, although it will be some years before we see any fruit from it.

Seed Storage Impact on Germination and Survival of Syzygium polycephaloides
Tumblr media
Abstract
S. polycephaloides or lipote is native in the Philippines that needs protection and conservation due to its usefulness and is considered as vulnerable and endangered. However, no studies were conducted about the effect of seed storage in germination and survival of S. polycephaloides. The study aimed to address this gap and study the impact of different duration of seed storage on the percent germination, percent germinative energy and percent survival of S. polycephaloides. Single mother tree of lipote served as seed source and collected four times with 10 days interval (T0 – 0 day storage), (T1 – 10 days storage) (T2 – 20 days storage) (T3 – 30 days storage) and sown it simultaneously. One-way ANOVA and Duncan Multiple Range Test post hoc analysis were used to assess the difference among treatments in terms of germination and percent survival indicators. Analysis on the seed storage revealed that there is a significant difference among treatments applied to S. polycephaloides seeds in terms of percent germination and percent survival. Specifically, S. polycephaloides seeds under T2 (20 days of storage) had the highest germination percentage of 93.12% followed by T3 (30 days storage) with 92.5%, T1 (10 days storage) with 81.8%, and T0 (control) with 78.13%. S. polycephaloides seeds under T3 (30 days storage) obtained the highest percent survival of 98.57% compared to T2 (20 days storage), T0 (control), and T1 (10 days storage) obtained 97.27%, 89.65%, and 87.04%, respectively. Both T2 and T3 are significantly higher as compared to the control (T0) (p<.049). Longer storage of seeds appeared to improved germination of S. polycephaloides. The results can be served as basis for future reforestation project and future researches aiming to improve the seed physiological condition of S. polycephaloides under seed storage.

Introduction
Today, the demand of functional food has increase significantly in recent years. Functional foods are ones that offer advantages to health beyond merely meeting nutritional needs. They contain physiologically active ingredients that aid in lowering chronic conditions like cardiovascular disease, hypertension, cancer, diabetes, and other illnesses.
Syzygium polycephaloides is indigenous to the Philippines. Its berry can be juiced and turned into wine or eaten ripe and raw. The antioxidant content of S. polycephaloides is similar to vitamin E (Santiago et al., 2007). In local communities, indigenous fruit trees are important because it serves as food, nutrition and income. However, out of 300 edible fruit tree species in the Philippines only few are cultivated commercially and many others are still remaining underutilized (Dulay et al., 2022).
Storage of seeds helps to preserve its viability because there is a period of time between planting and harvesting. Some of the farmers, researchers, plantation owners used seed storage to recalcitrant, intermediate and orthodox seeds for the purpose of maintaining the seed in good physical and physiological condition from the time they are harvested until the time they are planted. Many Syzygium species like S. cuminii, S. jambos and S. polycephaloides are considered recalcitrant to intermediate seeds wherein these seeds are sensitive to drying and can be kept for several months in low temperature (Abbas et al., 2003).
According to Sultana et al. (2016), there are some various elements that influence seed quality that includes temperature, insects, and all other biotic and abiotic components. Seed stored in low temperature germinate higher compared to the seeds stored in high temperature since high temperature increase the respiration rate and enzymes activity resulting the overhaul of food reserves before the seeds germinate that leads to seed decrease vigor and physical quality seed (Mbofung, 2012). Lack of availability of quality seeds leads to a decline in production due to low percent germination, poor development of seedlings and reduce adaptation in the field (Jyoti and Malik, 2013). Therefore, this study was conducted to determine the percent germination, percent germinative energy and percent survival of S. polycephaloides as affected by different seed storage duration.

IM BACK WITH FRUITPOSTING i am home and can re-start my fruit logs :) some change to the format: i will no longer be giving the fruits a score out of 10, i’ll now just be free form giving my thoughts diary style. anything from paragraphs to single sentences.
Anyways, fruit review 16: mountain apples!! they are one of my favorite fruits (from one of my fave fruit families, syzygiums are sooo underrated), my best friend surprised me today with a whole bowl just for me :D I haven’t had them in years, this was awesome and my tummy kinda hurts from eating so many. I’ve been talking about wanting them for days since the flight home so this was crazy awesome. happy to make my return to fruitposting

With cold and flu season fast approaching, I want to post herbal recipes I am finding. These are not mine, and not medical advice!!!
Plant Origins of Thieves Oil
Clove: clove buds originate from the evergreen tree Syzygium aromaticum or Eugenia caryophyllata. These flower buds contain up to 20 percent essential oil, and are incredibly pungent, thanks to the major active chemical component called eugenol.
Rosemary: rosemary is a popular herb that comes from a small evergreen plant that belong to the mint family. It is native to the Mediterranean region, and possesses strong anti-inflammatory properties .
Eucalyptus: eucalyptus trees are native to Australia, Tasmania, and nearby islands. They’re the popular plant exclusively enjoyed by koala bears, and come in many different species. The oil is derived from the leaf of the eucalyptus tree, and is commonly used in cold remedies.
Cinnamon: cinnamon oil and the dried spice cinnamon both come from the bark of the true cinnamon tree (Cinnamomum zeylanicum). Essential oils that come from the leaf, bark and root of the cinnamon tree are much different, but the most common used version in Thieves oil is the cinnamon leaf. The active component in cinnamon bark essential oil is cinnamaldehyde.
Lemon: lemons come from a small tree in the Rutacea family. Lemon essential oil is derived by cold-pressing the peel of the lemon fruit, which is rich in different phytonutrients and beneficial compounds.
Thieves Oil Recipe
As long as you have all of the necessary essential oils on hand, you can easily make your own version of Thieves oil at home.
Ingredients: Master Blend
80 drops of clove essential oil
70 drops of lemon essential oil
40 drops of cinnamon essential oil
30 drops of eucalyptus essential oil
20 drops of rosemary essential oil
Method:
Combine all of the above essential oils in a dark amber coloured 15 milliliter (0.5 fluid ounce) glass bottle. Make sure you store it a cool, dry place, away from heat and light.
Benefits and Uses of Thieves Oil
This thieves oil recipe can be used to address certain health ailments, check out the benefits and uses below! Not medical advice
1. Relief from Aches and Pains
This Thieves oil recipe is loaded with plenty of anti-inflammatories to ease muscular and joint aches and pains. Rosemary and eucalyptus oil have actually been found to relieve rheumatoid arthritis, as well as muscle and joint aches and pains. You can dilute Thieves oil in a carrier oil (like jojoba oil, almond oil or grapeseed oil) to be used topically on the ache or pain. Typically the ratio is 1 drop essential oil to 4 drops carrier oil.
2. Immune System Support
Thieves oil was used to protect the “thieves” from the Black Plague, so you can be rest-assured that this oil provides some hefty immune support. Clove and rosemary essential oils are powerful antibacterials and anti-fungals. They’ve both been shown to have significant anti-microbial effects against dangerous bacteria like Staphylococcus epidermidis, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans.
Massage the blend on your feet, lower back, neck and behind your ears for daily immune support. You can also diffuse Thieves oil to allow the essential oil molecules to enter your blood stream after they’ve entered your lungs! To get Thieves oil into your lungs is to diffuse the oil in a diffuser. Diffuse 15-20 drops of Thieves oil for 15 minutes, 3-4 times a day.
By live life fruit.

Tammy and Costa head to ‘garden city’, Bandung, in West Java. It’s a centre for plant growing in Indonesia and one street is even called Plant Street - it’s a 10-kilometre stretch with nothing but plant nurseries.
It’s a horticultural hub with all sorts of plants being grown and sold. There is colour everywhere in both the nurseries and houses along the way.
They stop at a section dedicated to fruit - sapodillos, huge mangoes, jackfruit and more.
The Jambu are related to lilly-pillies grown in Australia, but the fruit are much larger - the size of a small pear.
One section is like a frangipani forest. These salvaged plants are for sale but they’re not in pots; they’re being grown in the ground and already about 5 metres tall. If you want to buy one, it will be dug up and delivered.
Featured plants:
Sapodilla (Manilkara zapota )
Mango (Mangifera indica cv.)
Jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus)
Pomegranate (Punica granatum cv.)
Jambu (Syzygium sp.)
Frangipani (Plumeria cv.)
Filmed in Bandung, West Java, Indonesia
