everything reminds me of her

I have a Panama cherry tree (it was sold as strawberry tree) that grew amazingly quick and produces little fruits that taste like cotton candy but it takes up lots of room and not enough fruit at a time to do anything with. I’m going to take it down.

I feel you with that darn Sri Lanka weevil. They’ve made their way to my yard in north hillsborough county. We go weevil hunting with buckets of soapy neem oil to collect them. Soil drenches with neem are supposed to eradicate larvae in the soil and I’ll try that this year.

Totally agree about barbados cherry (acerola) tree. Far away from cherry tree.

I have a Key Lime tree I got from Home Depot 2 years ago. I planted it in my backyard here in Miami, FL, and so far it’s doing ok. It’s got Leaf miner, mites, slugs…you name it. But no citrus greening. It’s holding a couple dozen fruit and I have tasted a couple so far. I’m hoping for the best and keeping my fingers crossed! I will add it’s about 6 feet tall and I do control the bugs it has with a spray mixture of soap water, baking soda, and vinegar.

How has California avoided that insect??

Amazing!! So informative

I had great success with my various lychee trees for about 16 years, until Hurricane Ian destroyed them. Is it true that many of these invasive Asian pests, spores, bacteria, and diseases are spread through suburban neighborhoods by all the lawn and shrub maintenance businesses you see everywhere every day? You know the ones, doing the jobs Americans won't do?

I had same experience I feel like you did this report for me. Except the last tree I’ve ever had it. That sherry tree is scam

I have sugar belle in central Florida and it still gets the disease

Jaboticaba thrive in FL in dappled light. Under a big 'ole oak they will do best!

Research food forest .

Oranges do not grow well in Florida.

I recommend putting the jaboticaba in a shaded spot in the ground. They do not do well with a ton of sun.

Ben. Jaboticaba are easy to grow if you know how. They come from Brazil ( rain forest). So that actually means full sun burns the leaves as does a lot of wind you need a shady partly sunny place. In your video it looks like you planted it in full sun. You can keep in potted but put it in a large pot not the little one you have it in. And last it takes minimum 7 years to fruit that's why the larger ones are so expensive.

The further north you are the less HLB is an issue too I believe. So you could grow hardy satsumas like Owari in SC and northern Florida with less issues theoretically.

I got a soursop tree a few years ago and it seems to be doing okay. It made it through the past 2 winters without any issues. I bought a sugar apple, and it lost most of its leaves from the cold but is fine now that it's hot. I am in north central Florida, in 9a. I hope I can keep them alive enough to get fruit someday.

I also don't want to keep my citrus. It's a waste of space. I have problems with figs too. I had an everbearing mulberry die, but the fruit is full of worms anyway, it's gross. The apples and a few peaches are kind of a waste of time too. Where I am, it seems that guavas, starfruits, avocados, olives, plums and loquats are doing great. Between the nematodes and ants, I am going to have to start spraying around the base of my trees once every few months though, so many things would be fine if it wasn't for the insect pests and the diseases they carry. Thanks for saving me some time and money, I definitely won't be buying a lychee, they have been stocking them at walmart a lot lately.

Guavas always full of worms

My Jamaican cherry has been struggling since I bought it. It was pretty big from Lowe's. I bought to help provide shade in my food forest. Barbados cherries are great for Vitamin C and the immune system. My jabotacaba started growing better next to my house with some protection. I give it acidic fertilizer twice a year. Citrus sucks here that's for sure. I still have a meyer's lemon, pink lemon and grapefruit tree. I have lychee and Longon seedlings that I'll be adding to the forest. If you have the space, it's worth it. This was a great video. Definitely research your trees before you get them.

I am in So Cal and my experience has been very similar to yours. I cut down my Barbados cherry tree because I didn't like the taste and I cut down Jamaican Cherry because it grew way too fast. Thinking of cutting down mulberry for the same reason.

Barbedos cherries are amazing. So sad you did not like them.

That sucks that they didn’t work out for you. I must have black gold at my place lol. I grow all of them without any issues. Hopefully you give them another try in the future🍊

Go to Philippines and you will find so many varieties of mangos.

Quite interesting, especially the more historical hurricanes. Thanks for making this!

My favorite mango of all time

in 35 years florida tampa burbs this story repeats endlessly. Only thing that grows is augustine and to do that you ignore the watering rules and pay the professionals for the chems. If you don't ignore watering restructions, then you also ignore the lawn chem guy's monthy notes about 'water" ...yeah florida is really that stupid. then you resod it 5 years later when watering restrictions get you. it's $$$ and more $$. best advice financially is if in subdivison hoa consider it part of the cost though water restrictions just aren't going to support augustine in the future. better yet stay out of the hoa's toss down some bahia sod ,weed and feed , overseed annually and just mow whatever salad you end up with, invest the money you save and get on with life. Because florida yards are really that stupid in a nutshell . . It's weeds, too much rain (fungus) then dry as bone no rain forever in sand, notice how many sod companies semi annual resodding is just a thing here. Seed from my experience just is a waste due to how long to gemerinate, the water cost and that you are creating ideal weed conditions (open grouund with lots of water) which by the time anything will germinate you have seed competing with weed overload , which even in normal yard weeds are 1000 times more weed problems than anywhere else. You have full sun looks there you could try bermuda plugs if not probably bahia sod best bet and just patch up spots annually I have a mix. I have a mix the bermuda and bahia both have rough time at end of dry season, the bermuda bounces back during the rains but it's not a show lawn, just a typical salad. Keep an eye on marketplace due to the annual sodding which occurs here lol, usually you can find some contractor getting rid of left overs at the end of a job.

Can you get these in stores?

Sell those in stores?

Maha has a unique complex flavor profile, to some people ( or maybe dependent on ripening stage) it can come off having a carrot taste, and this would not be wrong, I was doing research on mango phytochemical composition, and Maha Chanook was shown to have higher than average Inulin sugars, this would explain the artichoke/carrot associations by some people. it is a nice fruit and I prefer it over the honey floral Nam Doc Mai, which is really not complex at all and can get boring after a while. Nam Doc Mai is probably better for making deserts, and mango sticky rice, or eating green.

Great video!!

Love the music also

Great video!!! Did you get alot of cherries from other tree?

This is the same reason I didn’t plant a Jamaican Cherry in my backyard. Like you said it grows too fast and gets out of control quickly. Also, I don’t like the idea that the fruit is a snack that doesn’t even fill you up. You will have to harvest a good amount to get you to fill you up. In regard to SourSop for me in Orlando, FL it’s a mission. I have to protect it every winter so it doesn’t die. It seems to not like temperatures below 50 degrees. This is really the only fruit in my backyard that I have to baby even year. Also, it seems to grow very vertically. I have to constantly tip it to stop it from going up so much. For me it seems to be a high maintenance fruit tree. Thank you for sharing this amazing video

Nice, I'll try one

I have this but the fruit come off red, would you be able to make a video pruning it for rapid growth or how to go about pruning it… it’s more than removing leaves? Appreciate the advice!

Angie is a very good mango. They get bigger than the one you reviewed. It’s my understanding that it’s a good alternative to the Carrie Mango.

It doesn't seem to be mallika by shape but it can be a variant or something. It is not surely ripe and ready, ready Mallika is quite sweet like Dashahri.

Looks great!!! You going to buy again??

Looks good!!

Love this video!! What stops them from going right before the spikes?

Great video!!

Looks great Brah!!

Weird seed

I know one thing for sure , that is not a mallika mango

Another great video keep it up man!

Thanks for your review and sharing❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

This looks scrumptious, Ben! Says 96gr. carbs. Is that for entire cake or a portion?

Looks amazing! Please share the recipe!

If it is bitter that's probably because of the preservation or so. But that fruit is very nice
