I have a superior lemon drop seedling and the leaf looks similar to the 2nd photo.
Were the fruits at similar stages of ripeness? The more orange it gets, the sweeter it tends to be.
Someone you know got mangosteens to grow in zone 9b? I know lemondrops are supposedly more hardy, but I thought even 10b was too cold for them.

I know lemondrops are supposedly more hardy, but I thought even 10b was too cold for them.People are growing them in 9b they usually just need cold protection in the winter if temperatures get too cold. I am in 9b and mine seemed to do good in a protected area outside all winter.
From SE Brazil and good cold tolerance. Very similar in many way to brasiliensis and gardneriana and also has a few variations and better types like these two.
