April 17, 2010 Ira Smith, a Florida native, has grown many varieties of tropical fruit trees over three decades, and is a Past President of the Palm Beach Rare Fruit Council. Ira held the attention of our 85 guests for almost an hour and lingered long after his allotted time to answer additional questions. His assistant in this endeavor, his wife, Paula Smith, and expert tropical fruit expert in her own right, demonstrated samples of several varieties of unusual fruit. |
