If the ad was for "maprang mango" or "mango maprang", it is definitely a mango. A friend in Texas got burned with this as well. Not sure if seller doesn't have a clue or is intentionally doing this. I know they were told the tree was a mango and not a maprang.
I grew a black sapote from seedling and it fruited on its own in a few years, definitely does not need another tree to set fruit. I like it a lot but I could see why people might not like it as the flavor is mild and the ripe black fruit is off-putting to some. It tastes nothing like normal persimmon, they aren't really comparable in my opinion.
Me too. Many start a radicle root but no shoot. Some start a shoot but it dies at under 1cm.
I never tasted a Lemonquat. I did have a Sunquat some years ago. It was not worth keeping and tossed it out on the compost pile.
