Here are some mangos i just picked:
Some of these i've never eaten before, like Fukuda, Harumanis, and Smith. Of the new ones only got to try the Fukuda so far. It was still a bit on the hard side when i cut it but still tasted quite nice, but nothing out of the ordinary. Has a little bit of fiber, but not objectionable. Will review the others later as i slice them.
Question about the Fairchild...is it really a Fairchild? As you can see it has a slight pinkish tinge. Is that possible?

Oh wow, those look bountiful. I haven't had Lanzones in a while, I wonder what variety they are. Can almost taste them.

Here is my entry.....Not interested in the prize, just wanted to enter my Florida grown Cacao!

nice pic!!

I want at least one seed from that tree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now that's impressive. Inside or outside over winter? Min temps tolerated please?

Another thing is S. Fla landscape. Its flat as a pancake. Durian likes a lot of water but will not tolerate standing water even for a short amount of time. What happens when hurricane passes nearby and dumps enormous amount of rain in 2-3 days? Your tree is likely kaput. This is above challenges with soil and Arctic blasts. You need fancy greenhouse with a lot of soil amendment. Its highly recommended to plant durians on slight slopes for good drainage.  However when I look at the pictures of Thai commercial orchards, they are always flat. Don't know how they do it. Maybe rain patterns are different in those regions?
