Fruits in Medellin Colombia

[ben mango]

Lots of mango. Durian sized soursops and the grandillas are sweeter than the ones I had in HI

Very interesting. The soursops have a handsome appearance and that fruit on the right in the 3rd pic with potato like appearance, purple flesh and guava like seeds has me stumped.

I think you have the guava part right. I see a calyx on the fruits. I think they have anthracnose which is affecting appearance of the skin.

Colombians seem to be expert with soursop! I have noticed it before in videos. They seem to have had absolutely perfect pollination to have that shape.

Looks like a great trip so far Ben!
Any other regions you trying to visit?

Being close to the equator are the mangoes all grown at high altitude?

Bush2beach, i went to Guatape lake, and Penol rock so far,  where there was a roadside fruit vendor along the way selling Pejibaye,

Mike, seems the growing of most mango is done below 1km. Medellin is at 1495m and there are many mangos along the sidewalks but it doesnt seem that they produce that well here.  this is a PDF i came across that i found in regards to mangoes in Colombia  https://www.researchgate.net/publication/259756284_Mangoes_in_Colombia
