Both fruit split. One wasn’t close enough to being ripe and the second started to rot from all the rain as I let it tree ripen after splitting. Both weighed in around 35lbs. Sadly, not as red as advertised.

Thanks for the pics ...I think its not really red its more deep yellow color. Anyway fruits looks good quality. I may have to get the Dang Surya for the real red color.

I was able to cut up my jack and I’m pretty sure I have the real thing. Even coming from a neglected tree and picked early, it’s one of if not the best jackfruits I’ve had, especially the darker/ riper bulbs from the bottom. The latex was minimal but there was an average amount of rag.

The Darker Ripe bulbs were dark red or yellow?

Seems scions are hard to get nowadays 

I found its easy to buy a tree and grow them in pot or ground then you will have constant supplay of scions of that particular variety.

Guava's original name is Priyoor from India.

Lots of people from Kerala incliuding the University of Kerala will say they are the same mango. Because the new generation never tasted a Perakka manga.
But I think Perakka manga and Priyoor  from Kerala India are two diffrent mangoes. Original perakka manga have  guava flavor  and its a lost mango hard to find. Priyoor does not have any guava flavor.

Thanks

Raul my tree is still small. I have both Red Morning and TM Red(Tony Morris red).. they are this year's plantings from 3g, hopefully in coming years they will fruit. The jack in your picture is likely from TM red and not Red Morning. I would ship you seeds for free if i had, will always remember how you were honest and generous to me, thank you very much. The only person i know with tons of jack varieties growing in his yard is Brandon - member cbss_davie so please message him and check.
...btw your pumpkin type garcinias are doing great.

That pic was a Red Morning seedling fruit: http://tropicalfruitforum.com/index.php?topic=4856.msg136486#msg136486

I can't remember if that Red Morning seedling is what is now known as Timor (TM, Tony Morris Red) though. Maybe Rob remembers.

Does TM RED Jack Fruit have the same red color as Dang Suria and Red Morning?

They both have citrus flavor and excellent.

Lemon Zest - Earlier season than Orange shebert., Better texture than Orange sherbert. Flavor varies depends on the time of picking, weather, ripeness and growing conditions, Sometimes  we get really sweet one. some times its lemony sweet and chalky. but I enjoy both.
Orage sherbet- Very clean looking mango. Flavor is consistant and more orange and mango flavor in it.
Lemonmeringue- Early season, More lemony flavor, Does not taste like a typical mango. Not jucy but excellent fruit. Light green color fruit and dark green leaves- feast for the eyes.
Lemonish- Its a new Mango variety from Truly Tropical. Looks like orange sherbert and same season. never tasted.

I tasted one M4, I picked early so skin were wrinkly. Its taste similar to coconut cream.

I hope it the right graft they are getting sloppy with accuracy at some nurseries!

Yeah, Its happened to so many people. I waited 5 years with my red morning and got yellow fruit.

It’s a good mango; I wanted to graft it on to one of my trees even though the fruit have very poor shelf life.

If its a Vietnam super early Jackfruit..it is very good.

With my Raja Puri bananas ripening now in the rainy season, I'm seeing the skin split on most of the bananas.  Is this something that's peculiar to or more pronounced in this variety?  I didn't mention that is a soft, moist banana, not a firm, dry one.

Skin spliting is very common in Rajapuri bananas. I seen it on mine too. I think we may have to harvest it before ripening.
