The Tropical Fruit Forum

You probably have Ewais. This info is from www.TropicalAcresFarms.com:

"Ewais is from Egypt, originating in the area near the Suez Canal and was named after an Egyptian minister. It is a small, ovate-shaped yellow fruit with a fiberless flesh and exceptionally sweet flavor that surprises those who have never tried it. The fruit are very prone to post-harvest anthracnose, but resistant to bacterial spot.  The seed is very thin and small, and polyembryoic.
 
The tree is non-precocious, and takes a while to start producing. It has a medium vigor, upright growth habit with dense canopy and may struggle to flower some years in the climate of south Florida. When it does flower though it sets a lot of fruit and makes very nice crops.
Ewais is a mid-season cultivar and ripens mostly in July here. We feel this variety might perform well in southern California due to its lack of precocity and growth habit.
 
Flavor: Egyptian/Indochinese
Country: Egypt"

This is what I do, and it works well for me: I dig only a shallow hole, 3 - 4 inches deep, and then try to chop the dirt up a little, and amend with some good soil mix. Then, I water both the potted tree and the hole, soaking them both. Then wait about 15 minutes, and place the rootball on top of you natural soil and dirt mix. Have it where it sits several inches above the surrounding soil. The idea is to create a mound. Then, add native soil and potting mix around the sides of the rootball, finishing off your mound. Water like crazy. Add some pine bark mulch around it, not touching the trunk. Add more soil and mulch over the course of days and weeks, as some is washed away by rain and irrigation. Just don't burry it too deep, and you can make its work.

After planting a tree, I water it daily (unless ample rainfall) for several weeks. Then, goto to every other day for a few more weeks, and then 2 x per week or so unless raining a bit. Do not fertilize for at least 3 - 4 weeks, so your roots will grow out into the new media. N impedes new root growth. It's fine to go even longer, the soil will have enough of what it needs for a while. I usually wait months before fertilizing a newly planted tree.

Also, don't expect to see much growth for a while. The work will be done below ground before above. Your season on this tree is likely toast, and I wouldn't let it hold anything this year anyway. Planted a 45 g mango last spring. It dropped all fruit, but is rocking this season.

Seems like Polpa Roxa, or something with color, would be best if trying to achieve something akin to red wine. I am tempted to make jabo wine now, just to prove it can be done. But first, must make jerky... I usually hate wine anyway. 

I like taking Fox Farms Happy Frog and Ocean Forest, and mixing with extra peat, perlite, sand, and a little bonsai media. Add Holly Tone for jabos and acid lovers.

When in a crunch, Miracle Grow Cactus, Palm, and Citrus (?) works great with most plants, especially mangoes.

I've got several nice and healthy trees and plants from TOP in the past, but agree it is a bit of a gamble purchasing some things. My productive rollinia is from them, along with SW sap. They are 2 of my favorite trees, but I have dozens of favs =) Haven't ordered from them for years, more because they don't really have anything I'm looking for anymore, and have better sources for most stuff. Business must be good, because I recall them having an, "I don't give a shit" attitude.

As for Volcano Red Jabo, I would do some research and see what growers in Hawaii say. I always thought Sabara was the wine jabo, but also have heard of a "red one."

Thank you Brandon. Upon further consideration, think I have a sausage tree at the moment.

Thx Brandon, you have doubled my hope! =)

Will take better pics tomorrow.

Just picked up a few 5g Pro Cal pots, they are pretty nice and sturdy. Here's their 7g:

Maybe they were treated with something. Have eaten plenty of Keitts over the years, and while not the best, have never noticed a "chemical" aftertaste. Stop eating them! Maybe find a better source for mangoes.

Just got in there. Quite nice! Sweeter than I expected, with a pleasant flavor. Not very complex. My kid liked it too.

#3 "annona" is an interesting guess. When I look at the closeup pic, it does look annona-ish. The leaves are smaller than annona, hard to tell from the pic. If you look at the first pic (group shot), #3 is the one on top.

I'm pretty sure it is a eugenia, maybe a plinia. While I do plant seeds, this one came in from a forum member or online seller.

Just planted some eugenia and myrciaria seeds, and LABELED them well, lol

The Maha is only a tiny branch, and is mostly shaded. Will be lucky if it comes to anything. ndm4 also has Orange Sherbet grafted, which is like another tree itself now. It has not yet flowered either. Partially shaded corner of the yard, not ideal for mangoes.

ndm4 did produce a couple of tiny fruits a couple of years ago, but nothing that held to maturity.

Must be nice to see blooms on that Pickering seedling! Congrats Shot! I have a grafted ndm4; waiting 9+ years and still no fruit. But the Maha graft on it is flowering =)
