Peach Cobbler Mango?

[johnb51]

Who knows anything about Peach Cobbler mango?  Is it another Zill introduction?

[natsgarden123]

Would be a great name for a mango...

[HMHausman]

This is getting ridiculous......peach cobbler?

[mangomandan]

According to Rob, this Zill introduction was also known as O-2.

From a previous discussion it sounds like a richly-flavored mango, but I can't tell you anything else yet except that Linda Wilson said it is very good.

I though people said this one tasted like an almond mounds candy bar?

[Squam256]

I can't believe they actually named it that. Well, yes I can actually.

That's E-4.

Squam,  is O2 any good, in your opinion?

Do you know if they are planning on releasing E-4?

Just bought a peach cobbler and coconut cream mango trees.  Anybody have any experience with these 2 newer varieties?

[FlyingFoxFruits]

haha sounds like u went to Greens Nursery today!

I saw the new varieties Ray brought back from Zills...I was surprised to see how many new names there were!

I bet they are all very nice.

I saw lemon zest, peach cobbler, pineapple pleasure, juilete, and even an ugly betty? and a few others I forgot.

O2 is excellent. Legit top-tier quality mango.

Anybody here other than me had experience with sunrise? Mine have been ultra productive and very delicious. Little 5 to 6 foot trees pumping out a dozen mangoes a piece. Some up to a pound and half. Juicy with a nice sweet and spicy flavor with a bit of tang. Love that mango.

Is there any mango that Gary has released which isn't awesome?? Pina Colada, Sunrise, Coco cream, Lemon Zest, ... it's like mango heaven!

Is your Sunrise potted or in the ground???

All the ones I saw at Jeff's were in pots and producing impressively.  I've never tried this mango....... to my memory anyway.  I had to get one and plant it out at my house.

[Squam256]

They're pretty much all delicious in their own way. Sunrise is a terrific mango with a slight-to-moderate resin note similar to that of Bombay.

[Cookie Monster]

Both! I donj't have any potted sunrise trees left after the big sale, but every single one had several fruits on it. The in-ground tree (which is strategically placed in my neighbor's yard just a few feet from property line) is also loaded. I went ahead and planted another on my property too :-).

That's a good way to describe it.

Looks like my list for next seasons trip south is started already. Need to get a sunrise. Sounds like the type I would really like. I like the strong resin/ spicy flavor types.

[morris4000]

anyone tried the peach cobbler mango yet?

[Doglips]

Am I the only one to feel like I am in the middle of the beanie baby craze.

Sneakers and cream?  I'll take 2!

[mangomandan]

The first Peach Cobbler mango I tried was too tart for me.

I'm hoping the one resting on my dresser will be better.

[Cookie Monster]

u probably will need to let it ripen more.

I know it's been a while but can you give a review of this one Mangomandan?

From what I have read this is a Kent X Gary, is dull green when ripe, and has a very rich flavor. Does anyone have any more information on this mango?

[Heartwood]

Actually I'd forgotten that I tasted a Peach Cobbler.
 
Unfortunately that time period is kind of a blank for me. I suspect I gave the second Peach Cobbler and other mangos to friends who came to visit my partner, who was very ill.

Maybe others will chime in.  Alex said it's excellent.  I mostly trust him, even though he likes some off-brand mango that starts with a W and isn't very good 

Oops, I probably shouldn't have posted from my favorite aunt's computer.   (mangomandan)

Any more thoughts about this variety- for example, about its....*drumroll*... production? Much appreciated.

[fisherking73]

How vigorous are these 2 Pina Colada and Sunrise ?  Upright or out growers?

Sunrise is pretty upright. Pina Colada is more of a spreading growth habit and not as vigorous.

I would say jury still out on ultimate production.  Dont really care that much what a 3 year old tree does production wise.  From what I saw 3 years ago, production seemed pretty good from mother tree.  I know it produced some crop last year though it was not a great mango year for some varieties last year (due to blooming time and conditions).  I know this year is up in the air, I know powdery mildew hit the mother tree so will have to wait and see.

Alex, how did yours do this year?

[Squam256]

Failed to bloom, but its still too small.

[behlgarden]

Wanted to know when to pick peach cobbler mango. I have one that is over 1.5 lb. Past few i picked got too soft afger ripening. Flavor is amazing and just had one woth brix 28.

[rliou]

Peach cobbler turns yellow for me and i would twist it off after color change.  I had one that i left one the tree and it fell.  While fruit was still good, a decent portion was unedible due to being too soft

[behlgarden]

I believe that is my issue too, that is why I asked when to pick so it doesnt turn soft. OR is that this variety's characteristic?

[Squam256]

It will go overripe quickly if allowed to start to turn soft on the tree. Harvest it green/firm when the color turns to a lighter shade.

[behlgarden]

Thanks

[starch]

That was my problem. I let it color up on the tree.
However I did eat a few peach cobblers this season, and they were delicious. Peachy with a cinnamon spice note to them. Richly flavored.

So anyone here reporting on the Pina Colada for this year? I have one and it is a slow grower. It is finally pushing out it's second flush since planting it this year. My CC is doing fantastic and is pushing out it's 3rd round of foliage. Kind of interesting to see if I may have to get rid of my CC if a Pina Colada taste similar. Anyone reporting a difference in taste?

Funny thing, the CC fruits I've eating from my CC tree reminds me of virgin pina colada. I have not eating a pina colada mango though.

Very different taste. PC is sweeter and more robust. Almost too much for some people. Can be a bit "chalky" on the less ripe side.

CC is milder with less acid component, and the coconut dominates more most of the time.

I like PC better myself but the fruit are too small and have a poor flesh-to-seed ratio.

[igrowmangos]

My PC looks like it died after pugging it. Seems like the stress took the life away from it. I will keep it until next year in hopes that it is just dormant. It was a very vigorous grower prior to pugging it, It gave about 8-12 new branches from the node. Deers kept chewing away at though>>>
