They're decent mangos and good producers, and the trees are pretty manageable. More of a regular mango flavor that you find from Haden descendants.

I finally got a decent crop this year from my 4 year old tree. Fruits were generally small yet colorful. Fruit was good, but not top tier - got some serious rain this summer, may have walked out the taste. I do have to say that I was surprised that a few of the fruits displayed minimal fiber near the seed. I've never seen that before from "Florida Red"

It was probably the 4th best mango in my yard this year after Edward, coconut cream, and lemon zest. Got the rapoza from benders grove a few years ago.
