They(zills) had taralay trees yesterday.  I bought 6.

I'm curious to hear your results Mark in Texas.  Mangoes don't all seem to wash out, but definitely had a few disappointments this year.  I'm not sure if the over watering is more detrimental right before harvest or during other stages of development.  Maybe start a new thread with your results, especially if you have previous experience with those varieties to compare with.  I love sweet tart too!

I've seen great jackfruit turn almost inedible with heavy rains... 


UPDATE: just tried an OS and a LZ side by side from Dr Campbell (latest batch) and LZ wins it for me(barely).  They definitely tasted a little different to me.  I love that "lemony orange crush soda" flavor if the LZ.   Could be differing ripeness stages.  I enjoy PPK and LZ a little under ripe.  The OS may have been a little past prime if it ripens the same way.

Hey everyone, I was in the videos linked above and really enjoyed Dr Campbell's hospitality and of course mangoes.

Here's my ranking of what we took home:     Orange sherbet > ceci love > coconut cream > sunrise > ruby > lemon zest > kryptonite > diamond

I agree.  Diamond, while pretty good in my opinion, was not at the same level as the rest of the ones we tried.  My wife ended up refusing them with so many other all-stars in the house. 

I just got another batch of mangoes from Dr C today and will be hosting a tasting this weekend.  Check out "What's Ripening Florida?" on Facebook.  Should be fun!

All I can say is don't eat an OS before you eat any standard mango.  It's just not fair... 

Maybe you can get a tour of Possum Trot while you're down there(Andy F. can probably get you in touch with Robert).  Also check Three Sisters across the road from F&S. 

Grimal Grove is a very cool place if you have time but it's a long drive.  I stopped by last fall while cycling touring the Keys.  It was closed but a neighbor gave me a tour and let me eat a ton of fruit(Kwai muk, macadamias, carambola, and huge red bananas) and we fed bananas to the key deer.

Is the Ross sapote still available?
