I like your Lisa fruits, they look pretty large. How was the taste?
My Lisa fruit is half that size, maybe my tree was not a real Lisa.

The taste is great this year. It has the berries and creme flavor.
Last year the taste was not great and allot of uneven ripening.
I am picking them a liitle early or the rabbits have been getting them.
They soften up in a few days. I have allot of clusters of fruit I should have
thinned and I am also trying to pull the large ones and hope the smaller ones
keep sizing up. Here's a pic of one of the fruits its a handful

I have heard the Lisa doesn't set well in Florida unless you hand pollinate?
I have never hand pollinated and the tree is loaded every year? Then I heard
there is a Super Lisa that Fruitscapes developed that is very productive? I got
my tree from Fruitscapes in 2014 or 2015. Is my tree a SUPER Lisa? Is super Lisa
the same thing as birula? I am not sure. I did meet a grafter that had Super Lisas
last year and he didn't know if they were the same as Birula either? I am growing
a birula now that I can compare in the future.

very nice fruit, huge !  If you want to trade a cutting some time, I can give you cutting from my Cuccio white sapote. I had 6 fruits in a cluster, the largest was 1.2 lbs. The fruit also tastes good (8/10).
