A gardening channel for everyone, especially for those that love rare plants. I’m a creative person that has become obsessed with growing rare, unusual, odd, and endangered plants. Hoyas and rare fruit trees are just a few of favorite plants to grow. Currently I live in Los Angeles, but plan to make the epic journey to Hawaii to establish a farm that will be an oasis for unusual and odd edible plants and houseplants. This is a channel about weird and cool fruits and plants, pretty or freaky plants, like Hoya, orchids, aroids, begonias and epiphytes as well as how to connect with nature. Advice is all personal and from my own experiences. Please like and subscribe and share my videos in the hopes of making this hobby a full-time job. Stayed tuned for for info about our farm called Honomu Tropical Farm, a farm for endangered plants. We hopefully will provide tours once we are operational.

Carica lanceolata. An extremely rare papaya relative. I grew these out for a while and they really took off once I put them in the ground in Los Angeles. I have two separate trees and my question is are these flowers male or possibly hermaphrodite? The other tree is just starting to flower and none have opened so I can’t quite tell. I really hope one is female so I can get fruit. I normally do not let trees get over 10 feet in my very small yard but this one holds my particular interest because of how beautiful the fruit is and I really hope I get to see the fruit. #rarefruit #tropicalfruit #papaya #garden #fruits

Super rare fruit alert: Eugenia sp “Murta de Santa Catharina” . I had watched this bloom in the early spring and never saw any fruit but now that I’m documenting everything that I have in the ground, I found these. This one apparently has great tasting fruit. Allegedly. Talk about a happy day! Taste test to come. #rarefruit #fruits #tropicalfruits #backyardgardening #growyourown

Super rare fruit alert: Eugenia hyemalis. I had watched this bloom in the early spring and never saw any fruit but now that I’m documenting everything that I have in the ground, I found these.

Eugenia itaguahensis is a very, very small growing bush, perfect for containers or in the ground, and produces fruit of a good size with a good flavor #gardentips #fruit #rarefruit #growyourown #tropicalfruit

Sometimes a deficiency in nutrients or certain weather changes or a virus can cause leaves to be weird, but why don’t we just all appreciate how damn beautiful this is! Myrciaria glazioviana aka yellow jaboticaba. The rest of the tree looks great. #gardening #leaves #nutrientdeficiency #thehappygardeninglife #jaboticaba

Another year on this blue marble. Every year I try and do a tiny selfie photo shoot on my birthday because of this quote: “If you’re 56, don’t waste time wishing you could be 18 again instead imagine you’re 90 and just woke up back at 56 with almost 30-40 more years ahead of you. How would you live differently? You are going to miss those years.” #birthdayselfie #selfie #56
