The Tropical Fruit Forum

Is anyone selling these fruits? will pay good $$ for them!

Miami fruit sells abiu, you can buy it online
Yellow mangosteen is usually available to taste and Fruit and spice park.
Rare fruit counsel of Broward County has a ton of fruiting imbe.

You'll need to time the season though

These are some 3lb Nancy mangos.
There is a regular size Valencia pride for comparison.
I'm pretty sure I got the budwood from squam, I saw he was saying one of his might have been Providence.
Either way this is disease free, late mango and the sap has a West Indian/Bombay smell.

I went out one time this year to hand pollinate.
This fruit was already on the tree though.
Pollinating during mango season is not fun. lol

Montana has a really pungent leaf smell. Soursop leaves are pleasant in comparison

Is it red inside?
I guess it must be super juicey and straight sweet

If anyone is in the area and wants to try an Abiu you are more than welcome.
I more than I can eat and I feel bad throwing away the seeds

In my experience, no, it is not common. I occasionally get some fruits like that, but not to the same extent and it does not effect fruit quality.

Thanks I shouldn't have trimmed the top of last year I guess

If you want fruit in September Keitt, Neelam and maybe Beverly are the only ways to go. (I haven't heard reports back on Delores yet)

I have Cotton Candy, M4, Honey Kiss and Venus as well and these are more July-August mangos.

It looks like my abiu is getting sunburn on the top of the exposed fruits. It's this normal?

I had a UFbest peach that i finally cut down this year.
I'm in Broward 10B hot, humid sea level.

Finally had more than a handful of fruits this year, without fruit fly larva. It was great but not worth the space.
I had around 15 golf ball sized fruit on a 15ft tree.
Standard open vase pruning technique.
It was a nice little treat at the end of March.

If your conditions are similar, I wouldn't bother with peaches, not enough chill hours in a typical year and fruit flies can infest the later season fruit.

I only root prune from potted plants when necessary.
How were the roots, were they circling the pot?
Also, how big were the potted trees and pot they were in?

I personally haven't been but i few of the forums members have and have good enough things to say.
ZHPP grafts this normally and from what I understand he resells their stuff primarily.

If you go let us know how it turns out.
Not many tropical fruits tree nurserys in Broward anymore
