My Pickering mango is in bloom, Tyler and NDM both have buds.
My Sweetheart and Hap Ik lychees are just starting to push out a flush, hoping it will be buds.

A bunch of my young newly planted trees in 9B are flowering. Orange Essence, Phoenix, Himsagar, Buxton Spice, ZIC, Dwarf Hawaiian etc. Even a Coconut Cream. In 10B Ice Cream is enroute for another spectacular bloom and equally disappointing fruit set. Both Julies are blooming too. Dot was the first to flower with fruit set already.

No where to plant it ...but at least I got it. ;)

Acerola.  Just swapped out a couple hundred watts of fluorescent for 1kW of LED and gave it a big prune, and it's coming back with lots of blooms.  I manually pollinated it; hopefully I'll get a nice crop!  :)

Serious cold snap coming and possible to lose the crop if already flowering......need to cover and heat if temps get really cold

Oddly enough, it looks like my lemon zest is closest to blooming right now. most trees are showing signs but LZ is just about there.

Several varieties of established Lychee at Bokeelia on Pine island, SW Florida are pushing blooms but not yet opening.
