My father-in-law did this for years in Coconut Grove with great success. He ate plenty of Orinocos and is still fine at age 75.

Also--I have a huge Saba planted on the front beach at Edisto Beach. It is on the west side of the house, but 30 yard from the high tide line. It has been thriving this wet summer.

Also..again.. friends have Ice Creams planted on the edge of Brackish ponds which contain flounder, crab, and shrimp. They are super healthy plants and produce fruit in early mid May.
