The canistel, Pouteria campechiana (HBK) Baehni, and its close relatives, the lucmo, P. obovata HBK, and the abiu, P. caimito (Ruiz & Pav.) Radlk., are excellent fruits of the American Tropics which are not well distributed and are little known. All are about the size of an apple or an orange, and they are produced on attractive, chiefly evergreen trees. These species do well in areas with cool nights and have adapted somewhat to dry regions; the canistel seems to be the most adaptable. All can be propagated from seeds, but named varieties of lucmo are propagated by grafting. Cultural requirements are described based on the fragmentary information available. The canistel and the lucmo have a strong aroma and a mealy pulp, yellow or orange. Although the fruits are often eaten by hand, the pulp, either fresh or dry, can be used in the flavoring of drinks and desserts. The fruits are good sources of provitamin A. The fruit of the abiu is gelatinlike in consistency and must be eaten when fully ripe to avoid a sticky pulp. These three fruits merit attention and would probably be readily accepted by most people. Export markets also seem feasible.

Excerpt from Cultivation of Neglected Tropical Fruits With Promise, Vol. 7: The Durian Many efforts have been made to introduce the durian to the Tropics of the Western Hemisphere. Because the seeds are short lived, only potted seed lings have succeeded in shipments of plants, and predictably only in the high-rainfall areas of the Americas. The first durian to fruit outside Asia was in 1894 in Dominica (lesser Antilles) from plants sent from the Kew Botanical Gardens, England These trees were the source of plants for subse quent introductions to Trinidad, J amaica, and other Caribbean islands. Today there are many fruit bearing trees in the American Tropics, especially in dooryards of knowledgeable plantsmen and in the few botanical collections of the region, such as the Lancetilla Experimental Gardens in Honduras. There are, however, no large orchards or commer cial plantings. The reception of the durian in the American Tropics has been mixed, many people spurning it at first because of its strong smell, but an increasing number of people, particularly young people, have become fond of it.
