Hello All,
My name is Roberto. Been a lurker for a while as I was a member of the "other" forum.
I had to join to place a vote for my favorite mango- Julie
I'm originally from Trinidad and as a kid, I've always liked sweet...flavorfull...mangoes. I don't find fiber objectionable at all- as long as the mango is sweet.
I like Sapodillas too. I currently reside in Pembroke Pines and my yard has:
Mangoes: (yrs in ground, size, fruits bore, comments)
2 Julie (6yrs- 30+ fruit, excellent quality like last yrs. 1yr 7gal tipped)
1 Nam Doc Mai (6 yrs- 30+ fruit, 1/2 of last yrs crop...ranged from watery (5-6) to extremely sweet. teaspoon white sugar each bite sweet)
1 Dot (1 yr 7gal bore 1 fruit...flavorful, rich, delish, then pugged),
1 Pickering (1yr 7 gal, bore 3 H-U-G-E fruit, flavorful, sweet, no coconut hint though)
1 Mallika (1 yr, tipped)
1 Lancetilla (1yr, 7gal tipped)
1 Carrie (1 yr)
1 Cushman (1 yr, pugged)
1 Maha Chanok (1 yr, pugged)
1 Okrung (15gal, bore 2 small fruits tree ripened, sweet and melting)
Sapodilla:
Okutzcab (1 yr 3 gal)
Alano (1yr 7 gal)
Yes, my yard is ambitious.
Looking foward to all the mango discussions.
