Hey everybody,
So my Dad, who recently bought a house in St. Petersburg, FL, (zone 10a?), is having a birthday later this month. Good news:
1) he loves fruits (when I was visiting last I helped him plant a pickering mango and a murcot tangerine). Now he's stoked and is talking about ripping out some scraggly oaks to make room for more mangoes, citrus, etc. He grew up in South Florida and had a few huge Haden trees that he loved.
2) he lives close enough to Jene's Tropicals (
www.tropicalfruit.com) that I could order something from them for delivery.
So here's my question, what would y'all recommend that would be dwarf/semi dwarf and would either be a mango or something more exotic. Must be available from Jene's or someplace similar nearby, and must be tasty!
He already has two big avocados, a great old white grapefruit, a pickering mango, a murcott tangerine, and another orange tree.
