Sugarloaf, M4 and pickering have coconut undertones right?
Does Pina Colada have more intense taste of pineapple coconut accompanied with tartness than Sugar Loaf? I like intense taste and complex flavors rather than sugar. I wish I had the chance of trying them all...
If you want those specific flavors mentioned above.PPK - lemon earlySugar loaf - coconut mid Honey Kiss - Sweet late

I prefer coconut cream over Pina colada and it looks like E-4 is a better tree as far as production and anthracnose resistance.Time will tell but others may have more insight.

Coconut Cream is Hawaiian Tropic in a mango with a very poor shelf life. Without focusing on any specific location, I would not say E4 is a better producer. I have seen vary production issues from the coast to 10 miles plus inland. I also feel as long as you have good airflow, anthracnose is not an issue. I am in Western Wellington, just East of Loxahatchee and I have no anthracnose issues on Pina Colada or E4 (I am blessed to have open airflow on my property). I had a Coco Cream tree in West Boynton Beach, just east of 441, and it got bad anthracnose but I had poor airflow.
Does anyone have or will have E4, M4, pina colada for sale?
Hello I need your recommendations. If you were to plant 3 mangos, what would they be? 3 tasty, complex flavored mangos with different flavor profiles. Maybe one with coconut, one with lemon, and one with another complex flavor.Thanks
