Hello Guys,

Would anyone recognize the attached mango pictures.

It is small, and super sweet, and purportedly from Colombia.

Thanks,

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Fruit and Spice Park - Is it worth it
« on: January 14, 2015, 03:53:26 PM »
Hey Guys,

I am in South Florida right now (Miami Beach), and i am thinking in visiting Fruit and Spice Park tomorrow.

Will it be worth to go in this time of the year, or better leave it for the summer?

As i don't have a car, and it will be a hardship going back and forth, so i wanted to know whether it will be worth it in January or not.

Thanks in advance.

Interesting video, Amr.  However, none of the fruits that I have ever opened would fall apart like that.  The fruit that they are eating looks to me to have some champedak in its breeding.  I have never seen a jakfruit that was that soft either, without being well beyond its prime.....frankly, it would have to be rotten to be that soft.  So....with a  champedak relative, this method is good.  Oscar is decribing a totally different method .  I am going to try Oscar's method with my next opening.

Harry

Keep us posted Harry ,, maybe this fruit have some chempadak as they are offering chempadak seeds as well ,, or maybe the variety is completely different ,, and yes i though that when the fruit is that soft it may be over ripe to rotten but then i saw them eating it lol ,,

Amr

Oscar's method is the best i think ,, it keeps the latex as is in the inner core ,, peeling off the skin then revealing the fruit segments intact is the best but i think  requires that the fruit is mature enough that the fruit segments won't be attached to the skin ,,

here is a video for a farm in australia they sell seeds as well

LOL ,, i love the rock-hard mango description ,, when i visit the US i never eat mangoes ,, in fact i eat as much mangoes as i can before i go ,, stores tend to bring mangoes for decoration only ,,

And i envy you Mike T ,, i would love to eat mangosteen for ever ,,

Amr

It's definitely right ,, it should outcome into a more powerful tree ,,

Thanks for the info mikesid and Oscar :)

Pomegranates are one of my favorite fruits. I have 5 pomegranate trees for fruiting and 2 for beauty (dwarf nana).

I got dwarf ones as well ,, they are nice ,, but eating pomegranates is amazing ,, and its timing in the fall is even much awesome ,,

Amazing looking Bonsai trees and Mangoes ,, sure the Philippine mangoes are the best ,, and i loved your jackfruit pics as well ,, Thanks for sharing ,,
