Fresh Start

I don't know when will the rambutan will be in my local store, so this time around I bought some rambutan seeds from montosogardens. If anybody is thinking of buying from them, please be patience, they are not a high volume company. I know this from reading in other garden forum mostly gardenweb and tropicalfruitforum. I think I waited about a month for this seed, I put in my order in late July when it's not rambutan season. I ordered some in 2012 but they did not have any on hand, so they refunded my money, so for 2013 I put in the order earlier.
