Tropical Fruit Buy, Sell & Trade / Re: Mangifera caesia or M. kemanga seeds for sale
« on: January 04, 2013, 10:54:08 AM »
I think so:
Fruits of both Mangifera caesia & Mangifera kemanga are similar in size and shape;the latter has lighter patches over its brown colour;it has rough skin while the former has smooth skin;the latter is more sweet but less acidic with strong flavour;the former is more acidic   but less sweet or completely sour with offensive smell.Seeds are similar in size and shape and they are non woody
The leaves might confirm.

Mark
Garcinia xanthochymus is Mysore gamboge in www.ars-grin.gov.It is also called Sour mangosteen. It can not be tasty.
Your mexican mangosteen probably be Garcinia intermedia(Lemon drop or cherry mangosteen).The fruits have sweet sour taste.
You can grow real Mangosteen(Garcinia mangostana) which has real tasty sweet fruits.For Garcinia,you may contact Sadhu.We have many Garcinia species in India.
Happy new year.

I searched in http://www.ars-grin.gov/
There is no such Himalayan mangosteen.
Please mention scientific name .There are some Garcinia species in and around Himalayas.
Mexican mangosteen is Garcinia intermedia ?

Hi Rob
In India,we have  plenty of jack fruit trees ,especially in Tripura,from where I come from.Most of the trees are from seedlings.Seedlings will give fruits within 3 years. Initially they are small and only after 20  years they become big trees.The trees can be pruned easily,we do it in rainy season.I can send seeds to you in summer.
