You mean, PW, your Manila imangoes are just now getting to the size in your photo?
Wow, seems late to me - when did they flower? I can only think you live
near the shore and have a delayed flowering season or something....
Great camera by the way - super quality.....thanks for posting....

Mangofang, I certainly don't have mangos like you - checked your video out and yours were finishing as mine were setting fruit. (photos were taken 7/13/2013).
I'm on a canyon in Clairemont with costal influence about 5 miles from the coast and a unique microclimate. Over the winter we had a cold snap here and I found 1/4" of ice in a bucket of water at the midpoint of my slope one morning - the passion fruit and bananas were happy as can be at the top, but the cold burned the old leaves on the mango pretty badly. Not sure if that caused it to flower late (I met up with simongrow in March and his mangoes will full steam ahead and mine hadn't even starting pushing growth).
I just planted a cherry down by the apple last month to see if I can get it to set fruit... seems the chill hours are there.
My oldest guava tree is flowering for the second time now (first time in six years that it has done that) and my stone fruits all had bumper crops.
Thanks for the compliments on the photos... taking photos is only fun if you can share them.
