The Tropical Fruit Forum

Glenn is a WEED for me, the thing grows bout' 3 inches a week... just kidding, Manilas are good too, Timatoyo's are formatted to grow here havae 1 in my yard, gotta ask Norman about his mango trees that thrive. Also try Atualfo, Edwards which I heard people have gotten success with here, the fruits from Norm's tree  were Delish, If have a grafted Kent that fruited outside, not doing well now tough because it's rootbound in a 15 gal. pot.

26 pounds?

I use hass, then again that's the most common here, and I have 5 hass trees in my yard, so it's kinda a "duh" answer. Anybody know a better one for me?

kewl

What truth? Your selling them the mangosteen and their selling it again?

no

 Hey everybody, was just looking at trade winds seed website and look what I found <a>http://www.tradewindsfruitstore.com/servlet/the-1220/Garcinia-mangostana--dsh--Mangosteen/Detail</a>
I thought they weren't going to do garcinias anymore, and if they were why would they start with a hard one like mangosteen?

Okay Awesome, thanks David, will definetally try

If only you were in SoCal, dang I would buy that tree with the flick of a lighter.

Because the forums image hosting has ads that I find very inapropriate, I have already discussed this with murahilin, I will either upload my pictures on another image hosting website that does not have these ads, or I will put an ad block on it.

To grow inside, above I was talking about growing outside.

Oh? Thanks for the info., the sign on them said "Custard apple" though, probably for selling reasons because custard sounds more appetizing than sugar.

Grocery stores and markets often get the names of less common fruit incorrect. They even get the names of common fruit incorrect. I've seen "Honeybell Oranges" at Whole Foods.

edit: Sugar apples are also called Custard Apples in some other countries and that may have caused the mix up as well.

Haha, honeybell oranges?!!!!

When they are on Fruit lovers seed co. I will order 5 seeds.
