Tropical Fruit Discussion / Re: Getting some new mango trees

Honestly it's April. Wait a couple months and gorge yourself on 50 varieties this summer before deciding what to plant. I should have done that and had to deal with taking trees out/topworking as a result.

We've been tasting and contemplating the varieties we want for years, I'm pretty sure we are going with SB, Carrie, and Kent. My questions are more about the size to get and not the variety.

Kent has too many issues, I would not recommend it.

What kind of issues do they have?

I'm in northern area of south Florida. I'm going to be adding a few mango trees. Trying for an extended fruit supply in the future, with an early, mid, and late season varieties. Southern Blush, Carrie, and Kent are what we're looking at. Have lots of size options to purchase here from 3 to 7 to 15 gallon sixes available. Will I get fruit production from 7 or 15 gallon sizes next year? What are the pros and cons of planting the different sizes other than cost to purchase?

Tropical Fruit Discussion / Tropic snow peach

I planted a tropical snow peach over a month ago. It's about 9-10' tall but very thin. I haven't seen any new growth at all since planting. Can anyone share information on these types of peach trees. I live in zone 10a. In south Florida. Should I have seen new growth yet?
