Just recently I tried some mango called "Kerala Ripe Mango", They might be Neelem Mango but I am not 100% sure. Anyway, the flavor was something new to me, It was like eating a Pineapple or sweet orange. I have never ate a mango like this flavor before.

Another mango I liked and growing it from seed is Gedong Mango from Indonesia. The fruit is similar to Alphonso in flavor (at least to me) and it also had little bit of Guava flavor but not too strong.

What do you mean by goat ?. Do you mean Generalized Occupational Aptitude Test ?.

The only Mango I have tried that had a guava flavor was Gedong Gincu mango from Indonesia. Here is some pictures if you are interested

Anyway, Good luck in your new mango trees. 

Theyre here.

I believe, The first mango is Anwar Ratol and the second is chaunsa, Am I right  ?.

If you can find Indian/Pakistani supermarket in your area, Ask them for White chaunsa or black Chaunsa. These two should be even better than the normal Chaunsa.

Pometia pinnata/ Fiji longan,  are supposed to be easy to grow, good tolerance against wind and salt spray and I believe they are some trees in Florida but not 100% sure.

Get a plant if you interested in this fruit because the seeds of this species are hard to ship.

I had some nice Chempedak seeds from Han Sen as well but they were dug up and eaten by some animals. 

Sorry to hear that.

If you are going to grow other species of Artocarpus, I recommend Artocarpus rigidus, they are easy to grow.

I tried several types Cempedak seeds, about 8 Cultivars. Two of Them are doing ok but the rest are dead or struggling. And those two are Durian Cempedak (from the local supermarket) and Pink Cempedak from Han Sen.

not sure, what are some of the common names?  I don't think I have.

Did you try Kasturi?

Nope, I only tried the common Mango.

You can get Mangifera foetida for 70 baht, about 2.25 USD. From here

I was at Zill's a while back...and tasted a sapodilla that had a flavor of both mamey and sapodilla. 

Does anyone know what type this may have been??  It was really nice.

Couldn't you just ask Zill's?

that's a novel idea!
One of the employees was eating the fruit, and didn't know what cultivar it was (the fruit even had some red in the flesh, like mamey) Yes I suppose I could ask Zill, but was wondering if anyone else had tasted a sapodilla that was reminiscent of mamey..and if they knew the cultivar name.

I suppose this fruit I tasted was much more special (rare) than I realized. 

but I saved the seeds!!

A friend of mine here in Vallarta has some of those! Is a Sapodilla but with a kind of red flesh instead of the regular beige/ brown  one, and a some mamey notes, some people believe is a hybrid between these two, hence the popular name here " mamey- sapote" as sapodilla is refer here as " Chico Sapote"

Any update about those red sapodillas  ?.

Is there a lychee cultivar that has a rose water flavor ?.

My little tree produced 3 fruits  and it did not taste like the typical store bought lychee, it was like sugary rose water with some lychee flavor  .

The average weight of Marula fruit is around 19.6g and mine is 24g, not too bad I guess

In my case, Yes it doesn't need cross pollination but having a single tree might hurt the yield. I have seen only female flowers on my tree and It produced about 5 ripe fruits and a few unripe fruits that got knocked out by a strong wind/Shamal.

what was the taste?

A little bit sour with pleasant smell, It not the most enjoyable fruit in the world but I like it, I personally will put it in the same category as June plum, maybe a little higher.


As for flavor/taste, Marula is from Anacardiaceae family, the flavor remind me of unripe mango.

The average weight of Marula fruit is around 19.6g and mine is 24g, not too bad I guess  .

Does that mean that it doesn't need cross pollination?

In my case, Yes it doesn't need cross pollination but having a single tree might hurt the yield. I have seen only female flowers on my tree and It produced about 5 ripe fruits and a few unripe fruits that got knocked out by a strong wind/Shamal.
