Wow, so jealous - congrats!
I recognize many, but not all of the fruits pictured. Can you list all that you acquired (with variety name if you know it)?
From Pic #1, I can see durian, mangosteen, papaya (and possibly also mango, or are those all papayas?), rambutan, avocados...
I guess the more purple sipkey fruit is pulasan, which I am not familiar with yet...?
Is that bibiba in the foreground?...
Someone else mentioned longan, but if so, they are a bit different in appearance from the longan I am used to seeing, which are smaller with distinctly brown skin...
From Pic #2, I recognize pineapple, several different kinds of mangoes, papaya and rambutan again, what l think is biriba, ginger...
Is that snake fruit? Oh... that's what you called salak. So, yes.
Looks like soursop/guanabana, and is that a jackfruit?...
Can't tell if those are abiu, or possibly giant granadilla, or what...
Also looks like some kind of dragonfruit I've never seen before...
Pretty amazing variety of delicious fruit, all available at the same time! I have been considering moving to the Hilo area, and this certainly further encourages me. Although I am a bit confused as I thought the soil on much of the Big Island was terrible quality, plus I hear there are a ton of pests, how they manage to grow all of those wonderful fruits? Do people just use a ton of organic matter to amend the soil? Or am I mistaken and the soil is actually very good despite all the volcano activity? I would like to find a location ideally that has good soil and rainfall, but perhaps not a 365-day-a-year-constant-downpour, with tropical temps and road access, and land able to be owed by non-Hawaiians (who are respectful of the local culture). But I suppose everybody wants the same thing... Although the humidity and ocean access in the Florida Keys are great, the inhospitable land here can be exhausting... and I really miss mountains.
