Are there any members connected with the growing of exotic fruits and vegetable here on the island. Things such as Chinese eggplant, bitter melon, rambutan, jacfruit, etc....

We are looking for local seed suppliers.

While this does not answer your question I was wondering where one gets seeds for growing seedless water melon and seedless grapes ?

The Hawaiian Strawberry Papaya would be a gread addition!

They are a small one portion size and with a little lime you are in heaven and as a matter of fact did you know the the Papaya is actullay the most healthiest fruit to eat!

I am in this business. I see many people selling seedlings in La Vega and i have not come across shops selling seeds. Normally the farmers collect their own seeds or exchange with friends. If you need in commercial quantity, i can get you some contacts in overseas.
