Frank Sekiya

I’ve been following Frank Sekiya in the press for a while now- he’s a nursery owner in Hawaii (Oahu) who specializes in exotic fruit trees.

I need to get my greenhouse/conservatory together so I can have a mangosteen. I want fruits no one has heard of before. I want to make sauces that are impossible to buy!
