What are the best websites for tropical fruit info?
Let me start:
Julia Morton's "Fruits of Warm Climates" - http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/index.html (http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/index.html)
-
University of Florida's Dr. Crane's Publications on Tropical Fruit in both Spanish and English!!

I agree that Purdue has some great resources. Here's another one from Purdue, slides from a course on tropical horticulture:

Here are another two good online online books for specific tree crops:

The variety viewers are one of a kind and the site has realistic descriptions and visually informative.

Thanks for the very informative sites. Its difficult to find accurate information on many of these wonderful trees.

One of the largest databases on plants and trees:
http://www.pfaf.org/user/plantsearch.aspx (http://www.pfaf.org/user/plantsearch.aspx)
And
http://www.worldagroforestry.org/resources/databases/agroforestree (http://www.worldagroforestry.org/resources/databases/agroforestree)
you can spend hours if not days going through all the trees and plants at these two sites. they have lots of information on most trees, just take a look at Annona muricata from the worldagroforestry database , a sample:
