JF, Alphoso does perform ok over here, but the fruit is nothing special, unlike the fruit from India I have tasted.
Amrapali was introduced in Canary Islands a few years ago buy the research station guys. I think the scions came from an institute in India. This is what my plant looks like:
Felipe, Amrapali and Jumbo Amrapali are slow growers here but the fruit is much better than Malika and Alfonso. Alfonso has major internal breakdown and Malika is difucult to time.
here are pix of Amrapali & Jumbo Amrapali grafted next to each other and Alfonso sponge internal breakdown some turn black.
Here is a perfectly looking Alfonso
here it is cut open taste is bland
