I'm retired and my kids are out of the house so the Mrs and I are looking to downsize to a smaller place. I would much rather sell it to someone that will appreciate the fruit trees and grove. The Zillow listing https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/4910-SW-205th-Ave-Southwest-Ranches-FL-33332/43129265_zpid/ tells about our house so here's all the tree information.  If anyone would like more specific information PM me.

24 mature fruit bearing mango trees with 22 different varieties.

Likely a few other trees that I'm forgetting about but you get the idea its a dream tropical fruit garden that still has room to plant a few more.

I have two mature Valencia Pride trees in my garden and a mature Tong bi Con tree.  I recommend Tong bi Con, it grows faster then Valencia Pride and has huge very dark green leaves that give it an almost ornamental look.

I though this was a pretty interesting article about growing/bringing back an extinct species of date palm from a unbelievably still viable 2000 year old seed.

I have two healthy mature Valencia Pride trees planted in my yard. One of the VP trees grows much slower and lower then the other more vigorous one does.  Oddly when one tree has a great fruiting year the other tree seems to fruit lightly. I'm guessing the size and growth difference is mainly based upon different rootstocks, the soil and location where each tree is planted. Cant explain why my VP trees alternate their heavy fruit years but it is convenient.       

Botanigard, AzaSol, and Conserve SC for bugs (Conserve used sparingly to avoid resistance); Nordox and Abound for fungus on a 2 week rotation schedule; sulfur (That Flowable) on mango blooms.

Jeff,
Just curious. What pesticides do you use?

What rate of Nordox do you use on your trees?

Mango Bansai?

So...two Ivory mangoes are now coloring up with a yellow streak. Should I let them get full yellow on the tree before picking or counter ripen? For the record, Tog Bi Con (TBC) is a much, much larger mango than Ivory- both in thickness and length. TBC flesh is also an orange color.

My Tog bi Con trees fruit has a very pale white flesh?

Unfortunately amount of blooms are not always a reliable indicator for fruitset or fruit production.

So true! My Carrie was full of blooms and I later discovered that only a very few bb sized fruit . Suspect
that Anthracnose is the culprit. Sprayed it this weekend.

Has  anyone else noticed something strange happening to  Carrie this year?  My Carrie, which is usually dependable, was covered with flowers but the number of tiny fruits it now has is much less than in previous years. A few of my friends also had the same thing happen their Carrie trees.

Exactly the same on my Carrie tree. It was covered in a very heavy bloom and ended up with almost no fruit set. All in all maybe 10-15 fruit on the entire tree.   

I had been checking out mango tree for weeks, as most of the others locally are now in full bloom, but mine hadn't grown in any way since last year. I got home from work last evening and was giving it another look over when I noticed what looked like a leaf flush on one of the branches. Resigning myself to having missed out on mangoes for the year I went in for a closer look.....and it was a bloom! It had leaves at the top oddly enough, I guess because of the mild winter. I noticed some others as well, I'll post a picture below. Interestingly enough its only blooming on one side so far, although it started out the same way last year and the other side bloomed about a month later.

(Excuse the anthracnose)

Many of my mango trees are putting out leafy bloom this year as well. Very likely as you said due to a very mild winter.   

The branch will likely be fine. I would leave the tree alone and let it grow. 

Congrats. Its obviously much cooler up in Jacksonville then it is down south where mangoes normally grow. I'm guessing that due to the cool weather the tree was fooled into thinking its further along in the winter so its blooming in preparation for the spring.

You have some great trees for topworking. Do you actually enjoy the Rosigold or Lancetilla?

Call me crazy, but I really enjoy Rosigold. Not the most in your face mango that tastes like coconut unicorns, but every one I ate last year (first year my tree fruited) was enjoyable.

You REALLY ENJOY Rosigold???  Time to call the Doctor...I believe you may have been concussed.  File Rosie (along with manilita) under YRB  for yellow, rubbery, and bland.   To each his own, but there are much better options.

Rosigold is the BEST...and...ONLY mango ready in March-April thus its appeal...On a 1-10 scale it gets an extra few points for that availability.
