Keep the video's coming as they are so entertaining and educational, especially love the ones with taste testing of different varieties. I was curious if you grow the "blue" mango which I believe is a different specie than common mango? I think that would be a neat one to have in your taste testings assuming it is a good tasting one as I have read.
Thanks for the G2. I saw a "Buttercream" at Ft Myer's "ECHO" nursery. But passed on buying it because I thought the name implied soft melting texture. Good to hear it has nothing to do w/ texture. And sounds to be an interesting flavorful fruit. Might be re-thinking buying one next time I see one for sale. Lehigh Acres, FL
Wait. Isn't that exactly what it implies? Walter said it has nothing to do with the FLAVOR. "When I think of buttercream, I think of something oily and fattening and all that," which it isn't. Then he says it has no fiber. Listen again.
@@johnbanach3875 Might need some marketing help w/ naming the varieties. Maybe it's just me, but "Buttercream"... nope. However, after listening to Walter... the flavor sounds very good.
@@johnbanach3875 no transportation for me out that way would love to get out there I love going to truly tropical LOL would be so cool to definitely do that and meet Walter over that way but I never get out there. Good thing during mango season I pick hundreds of varieties of mangoes just kind of really want to meet Walter LOL
So the name Buttercream signifies the extremely smooth fiber-free texture of the fruit and nothing else? Gary Zill needs to recruit a better naming committee!
I had my last Buttercream yesterday , amazing flavor. Thank You Zill's
Did you just call and purchase them from Walter Zill?
Always enjoy watching yours and Walters videos. Thanks
Wonderful video Chris! Thank you! Looking forward to trying a buttercream mango in the future.

I recently bought one online, hope to have fruit in 4-5 years. I have tasted Okrung, so looking forward to Buttercream's taste.

Name makes me think of icing on a cake 🎂. It's not a triggering a flavor of mango variety appealing to me.
Never been lucky enough to meet Walter, would love to talk mangos with Walter yoooooo
Do you live in South Florida? You can go buy mangos from him. His place is near Chris's.

Chris is the best
Before the internet, you talked with the oldtimers to glean information. Or attend plant society meetings. Walter reminds me of those days.
@@greatergood3706 I actually got to talk to him finally. So awesome!!! He's too cool.
Butter Cream - Polyembryonic ???

Agree. Texture important, but less important than flavor. For me, if not a fiberless texture, it's pretty much a "non-starter" to begin with.
@@Balmy_Jones There are plenty of great-tasting varieties that aren't totally fiberless.
@johnbanach3875 That's very true
First!
First LOSER.
