A picture of my 3 year old planting her first tree last weekend: a Kampong avocado we bought from Bender's Grove.

Canistel is very easy to graft. I have started multi grafting my ten foot Trompo. So far I have added Fairchild 2, Long Hawaiian, Ross, and Fitzpatrick. Film wrapped, leafless scions have a near 100% take rate with minimal care using a simple cleft.
Excalibur Red and Deng Suria (also known as Red Morning) are a darker more pronounced red. Cristela is lighter red with a tinge of pink.
Rob,
Do you like Cristela? Mine is a few years away from producing. It should be noted that it is not a vigorous grower.

Coconut, don't eat the plate-lol
Wow, several desserts. Thanks, all!
I knew there were some creative forum members when it comes to different ways to consume eggfruit (which is an awful name since eggs aren't sweet....and it doesn't taste like eggs....not easy to convince newcomers that it is worth a try.
Has anybody sliced canistel and dried it?
Ok, let me clear the air about the Galaxy mango. PIN is shooting for a 2015 introduction date. While there may be a very small limited quantity available later this spring, we are planning on using most available plants that were grafted by Pin to produce more bud wood for future propagation, we hopefully will have some available this spring but due to the limited amount of available budwood that we had available to us this past summer, filling the demand for 2014 is impossible. I hope everyone understands this, believe me we want to get them in all your hands, but Rome wasn't built in a day and the demand well exceeds the supply at this time. I wish I had hundreds of them, but it is way more important to have an available supply of budwood so this variety can be enjoyed by all!
Sorry to hear the pressure is on you, but there are worse things, right?
No way anyone should be able to swoop in and get this beautiful Galaxy for less than $100. Do I hear $115? Come on, I know y'all want to help the forum out...
