CITRUS CITRON: BUDDHA HAND 10'C Buddha's Hand citron is a tree citrus with a deep lemon yellow colour when mature. The fruit morphs from small and purple, to green, and then yellow, splitting at the opposite end of the tree's stem forming segments that have a wild finger-like appearance. A fruit will have its own unique shape and can range in size, from a large lemon to a small melon. Buddha's Hand citron features an oily rind with a fragrant sweet lemon scent. Its flesh is void of juice, pulp, and seeds, and is inedible in its raw form. Buddha's Hand citron is commonly utilized for its zest and has a flavour that is described as a blend of bitter and sweet acidity. Harvest in late fall through early winter months. 10th century AD. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 Gal 100-150 cm $150.32 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 8 Gal 130-200 cm $212.20 -- 0 1
CITRUS CITRON: ETROG 5'C Small and shrubby with an open growth habit. The new growth and flowers are flushed with purple and the trees are sensitive to frost. The leaves are oblong but slightly pointed and somewhat rumpled with serrate margins. The fruit looks somewhat like an oblong lemon, but with a shape that approximates the flame of a candle. The mature fruit is considerably larger than a lemon. The rind is yellow, glossy, thick and bumpy. It is very fragrant, with a distinctive aroma of violets derived from beta-ion one. The fruits hold well on the tree. Etrog primarily are grown for Jewish ritual use in the Sukkot harvest festival, held in September or October. Recorded from the time of Alexander Jannaeus (104-78 B.C.). Blemished specimens, and fruits from grafted trees, are sometimes sold for culinary use.

CITRUS KUMQUAT: EUSTIS LIMEQUAT 5'C Eustis, Lakeland, and Tavares. Their importance is approximately in that order. All are characterized by fruits that closely resemble the West Indian lime in size, form, and composition and hence are reasonably acceptable substitutes. Eustis and Lakeland also closely approach the West Indian lime in colour. Tavares, however, exhibits some of the orange coloration characteristic of the kumquat and the pink coloration of the flower buds which occurs in the West Indian lime. All of the limequat are more cold-resistant than the lime parent but considerably less so than the kumquat. 1909 2 Gal 60-100 cm $81.20 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
CITRUS KUMQUAT: INDIO MANDARINQUAT 5'C Kumquat-Tangerine Hybrid. This hybrid came from a Nagami tree; the pollen parent is suspected to be Dancy mandarin. This cultivar produces profuse numbers of a very attractive, necked fruit which is light to medium orange coloured the shape of a Minneola tangelo, and about three times the size of Nagami kumquat fruits. It is probably too tart for most palates, but seems somewhat less tart than its Nagami parent. 1972 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40
CITRUS KUMQUAT: MEIWA 10'C Distinguished by their rounded versus oval shape and their sweetness. Often simply referred to as the sweet kumquat. Meiwa kumquats are entirely edible, rind, flesh and the occasional soft seeds. Meiwa kumquats have a thick, smooth oily peel with aromatic citron fragrances and sweet flavour. Flesh is not overly juicy but still very flavourful and bit tart. Only by eating both the skin and flesh will its perfect sweet-tart flavour balance be experienced. Harvest late winter through early spring. Meiwa in its native Chinese language translates to "golden orange". 1924 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

CITRUS LEMON: ALLEN EUREKA 10'C Also known as Abhayapuri lime. Of a spreading habit, the tree is moderately vigorous and smaller than its best-known rival 'Lisbon'. Less cold-resistant than other varieties. The fruit have a smooth medium thin rind, high juice content, high acid level, low number of seeds and good flavour. The trees are less thorny than many other lemon varieties, which makes picking easier. In its early years, Eureka is more productive than Lisbon and the harvest season remains longer also when fully grown, starting in late winter and continuing through spring till early summer.

CITRUS LEMON: LIMONEIRA 8A 5'C Limoneira 8A is one of the newest Lisbon selections. It is nowadays probably the most popular Lisbon type in California, Arizona and Argentina. Vigour, size and seediness are similar to Eureka but Limoneira 8A has longer blossoming periods and consequently longer periods of harvesting. Limoneira 8A has a high yield of fragrant rind oil. The name of the variety comes from The Limoneira Company's orchard 8-A in Olivelands where this variety was developed in the 1940's. The new variety proved more resistant to disease and yielded more high quality fruit that maintained a strong shelf life. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 3 Gal 100-140 cm $127.27 -- 0 1 2
CITRUS LEMON: PONDEROSA 10'C Introduced in 1887. Considered ever-bearing & its fragrant blooms produce extra large fruit. Its small habit makes it a good variety to espalier with. New growth and flowers are purple tinged. Fruit is moderately juicy and fairly acidic. It is more cold sensitive and requires protection.

CITRUS LIME: KEYLIME (MEXICAN) 10'C The colour varies from dark green when immature to a yellowish green when ripe. All green lime types turn fully yellow when mature and soon thereafter drop from the tree. To avoid confusion with Lemons, Limes are collected when still green. The Mexican lime is at its juiciest and best medium ripe, when still partly green. If it is allowed to mature on the tree it loses some of its typical flavour and becomes less juicy. This is the Key lime of food recipes. Both the juice and the rind oil of Mexican lime have an inimitable and unique lime flavour. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $81.20 -- 0 1 2
CITRUS LIME: MAURITIUS (KAFFIR) 10'C This is a wonderful lime variety. The leaves are used in Thai, Cambodian, Lao and Vietnamese cooking. They are very aromatic and shaped like a figure 8.

CITRUS LIME: PALESTINE SWEET LIME 5'C Also known as Indian sweet lime. The tree is medium-large with an irregular spreading form. The flowers are pure white, and the new growth is bright green. The fruits are small, round to slightly oblong, and have a thin, smooth, rind with prominent oil glands. The flesh is pale yellow, tender and juicy, with some seeds. The flavour is insipid due to the lack of acidity in the fruit but is appealing to some. 1924 2 Gal 60-100 cm $81.20 -- 0 1 2 3 4
CITRUS LIME: PERSIAN (TAHITI) 5'C Fruit is medium in size and picked when still green. It has a very distinct lime smell. It is juicy and seedless. The tree has less thorns then the Keylime and is more cold tolerant. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $81.20 -- 0 1 2 3 4

The fruit is medium in size and variable in shape with obovoid most commonly occurring form. The yellow rind has a slightly rough texture and a distinctive rind oil. This oil is used commercially to flavour Earl Grey tea and as a component in perfumes, with Italy producing the majority of the world's supply. The fruits contain few seeds and are monoembryonic in nature. The flesh is pale yellow, acidic, and has a moderate juice content. Bergamot is thought to be a hybrid of sour orange and citron or lemon. Bergamot has been known in the Mediterranean for several centuries and described as early as 1708. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3
CITRUS ORANGE: BREAM TAROCCO 5'C Bream Tarocco is a medium-large to large blood orange variety with few to no seeds. Tarocco blood orange if one of the major blood orange varieties of the world. The distinctive colour is a natural mutation and is due to the presence of anthocyanin, the same plant compound that is responsible for the colour of pomegranates. The distinctive colour requires a chilly winter to develop properly. 1994 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1

CITRUS ORANGE: FUKUMOTO NAVEL 5'C This early maturing navel orange selection reaches legal maturity three to four weeks before Washington navel and is one of the earliest to reach colour-break. One of the most outstanding characteristics of this selection is the deep reddish rind colour of the fruit. Fukumoto trees tend to be smaller than other navel selections and appear to produce more chimeras than most navel orange selections. 1980's 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 3 Gal 100-140 cm $127.27 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5

CITRUS ORANGE: MIDKNIGHT VALENCIA 5'C Virtually seedless, medium-large, somewhat oblong fruit of excellent quality and medium-late maturity. Since it ripens earlier than Valencia and does not fruit in clusters to the same degree, it is probably best considered a variety. The tree is moderately vigorous and upright-growing, leaf shape is large and almost grapefruit-like. Bears similar yields to Valencias of same size (not age). At first sight does not appear to carry a good crop but this is the result of the large fruit size. In South Africa the Midknight produces fruit of excellent size (mainly 70-85 mm), good round shape (sometimes very slight shoulder) and very smooth rind texture. Excellent internal quality with high juice percentages and TSS levels. Seedless as Delta but has slightly tougher rag; can also be difficult to peel. Matures at same time as most Valencias. 1930's 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3
CITRUS ORANGE: MORO BLOOD 3830 10'C Moro, in its turn, can have the most intense deep dark, almost purple-black flesh and juice of all blood oranges while it may not have even the slightest speck of pigmentation on the skin. Some say the colour of fully ripe Moro juice resembles the colour of the best wines from Burgundy. The skins of ripe full blood oranges can have as much anthocyanin as the skins of ripe dark grapes. 1975. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5

CITRUS ORANGE: PARENT WASH 10'C Washington navel orange is also known as the Bahia for the Brazilian city from which it was imported into the United States in 1870. Although its origins are uncertain, it is believed to come from a bud sport found in a Selecta orange tree in the early 1800s. These exceptionally delicious, seedless, easy-peeling fruits quickly attracted the attention of citrus growers, and within a decade the "Washington" navel orange, as it came to be known, was the most widely planted. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 3 Gal 100-120 cm $132.30 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15

Intensity of external pigmentation and purplish-red colour of the chalazal spot place this variety in the deep blood group. Variety originated as a limb-sport of Doblefina which came to light in Spain about 1950. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $81.20 -- 0 1 2 3 4
CITRUS ORANGE: SMITH RED 5'C A single seed from a deep red coloured fruit collected in Ventura County. Fruit somewhat over-mature looks like a blood orange, including an indentation at stylar end. The tree is a vigorous grower and carries good crops of fruit. The fruit is of good size and flavour and is very low-seeded. Flesh is heavily pigmented with anthocyanin. Although the fruit is mature in late winter, it holds well into late spring, well past the season for conventional blood oranges. Typically larger than Moro; somewhat variable shape; globose to ovoid with a depressed base, possibly due to juvenility; rind frequently heavily blushed, texture more pebbled than Moro or Tarocco; flesh deeply pigmented by anthocyanin, less tender than Tarocco; flavour very good, sweeter than Moro. 1998 2 Gal 60-100 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14
CITRUS ORANGE: WASHINGTON NAVEL 10'C The large, exceptionally delicious, round, seedless fruits are rich in flavour and have a slightly pebbled orange rind that is easily peeled. Early in maturity, 10 months, at its best in the late autumn to winter months, but will hold on the tree for several months beyond maturity and stores well. The fruit is medium yellow and has a thick rind that comes off easily. The segments are seedless, loose, very juicy and very sweet. The sugar to acid balance is on the sugary side but has enough acids to make a pleasing citrus flavour. The texture is firm but melting. All in all one of the best oranges to eat fresh. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $76.27 -- 0 1 2 3 Gal 100-140 cm $125.38 -- 0 1 2
CITRUS PAPEDA: SUDACHI ICHANDRIN 5'C Small fruit somewhat resembling Yuzu. Fruit is reddish-orange, leaves similar to Yuzu, resistance to citrus canker is good & gummosis resistance is good. Highly resistant to citrus root borer. Growth is slow, may have dwarfing characteristics. Trees are long-lived. Sudachi is an acid citrus; it bears small fruit (20-25 g) and is traditionally grown in Tokushima Prefecture (Japan). The fruit are harvested only at the green stage and are served in cut halves as a garnish. Sudachi trees tend to have a spreading habit of moderate vigour, but can be considered a small- to medium-sized tree, as 26-year-old trees on C-35 cit-range root-stocks are only approximately 8 feet tall. Thorns up to 5 mm in length are present in each leaf axil. Leaves are elliptical in shape, with a small-winged petiole. The tree canopy has dense branching. 1961 2 Gal 60-90 cm $78.58 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15
CITRUS PAPEDA: YUZU ICHANDRIN 10'C Yuzu is thought to be a hybrid between Ichang papeda and Satsuma mandarin.

MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: ITAMARACA 10'C From Brazil. Fruit are very small and round, sometimes flying saucer-shaped, green but develop some yellow and red blush at maturity. The flesh is fiberless and has what is categorize as Indian/Alphonso class flavour, resembling the flavour of the Kesar variety. So if you are a fan of Kesar you may enjoy trying Itamaraca! The seed is small and poly-embryonic. The trees are spreading growers with a dwarfish/compact growth habit. Despite the small fruit size, they produce well. Appears to be an early-to-mid season variety with an extended season. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $156.60 -- 0 1 2
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: JEHANGIR 10'C India variety named after a Mughal Emperor. Light coloured almost white flesh and fiber-less. The Jehangir mango looks like an apple. It is best consumed when it looks green and 'tight', as inside the fruit would be ripe and ready to eat. Once it turns orange on the outside, it is best used for juice or pulp. Jehangir is very sweet and has a strong flavour and fragrance. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: JULIE 10'C They can be difficult to determine maturity properly, and their window period for eating once ripe is quite short. The flesh is quite soft, with a minor amount of fiber, rich in spice with a dash of coconut flavor and plenty of sweetness, making its flavor group difficult to classify. In some specimens the coconut flavor may be very pronounced. They will often flower multiple times during the course of winter, often leading to two separate crops with some ultra early fruit. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1

MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: LAHORE HIMSAGAR 10'C This is the name Tropical Acres has given to the Himsagar. Contained in the collection of the USDA, which has been propagated to some degree in south Florida. It did not resemble the Himsagar of West Bengal and Bangladesh (which is a round fruit shaped similar to Kent or Haden). T. A. have given it the name Lahore Himsagar because the budwood was supposedly sent to the USDA from Lahore, Pakistan along with several other varieties in the early 1960s. This mango is slightly oblong in shape, medium-sized and yellow at maturity. The flesh is delightfully rich and sweet in flavour, belonging in the classic flavour group. It appears to be a mid-season mango and the trees are precocious and productive in large pots. The seed is monoembryonic. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2 3
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: LANCETILLA 10'C A Honduran selection made famous by Dr. Richard Campbell. Its debut at the 2001 international mango festival at Fairchild tropical botanical gardens made it an instant south Florida sensation. Its immediate acceptance by homeowners can be attributed to the tree's ability to be maintained at just ten feet. The up to 2 kg (5 lb) blood-red fruit is firm, sweet, and completely fibre-less flesh with an Indian/West Indian flavour that has a light resin component. The fruit have a problem with splitting open while on the tree and tends to drop immature fruit. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2

MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: MAHMOOD VIKARABAD 10'C A very old Nizam-era mango from India, where there are still some plantings of it in existence in Telangana state. The name is sometimes spelt 'Mahmoods Vikarabad' or 'Mahmooda Vikarabad'. We know little else about it other than that the eating quality is reportedly outstanding and it is considered a dwarf tree. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: MALLIKA 10'C Native to India, it has become a favourite due to its superb flavour, unparalleled disease resistance, and small but extremely productive habit. The catch, however, is the fruit must be picked mature green for optimum flavour, packed in a cardboard box and kept at room temperature. Ripening typically takes ten to fourteen days. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2

MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: MAPULEHU 10'C From Molokai, Hawaii and is also known as 'Joe Welch', the name of the man who planted the seed in 1929. Speculated to be a cross between the Pirie (see 'Bombay') and Haden. Mapulehu received attention from horticulturalists in Hawaii due to its well-regarded eating quality but was found to perform poorly in wet areas, so is largely confined to dry sections of the islands. Fruit are ovate shaped, yellow and developing an orange/reddish blush. The flesh is fairly firm, with very minimal fibre, and has a very good Indian/West Indian flavour probably superior to that of Bombay. The tree is a vigorous grower in Hawaii. Container grown it has actually grown only modestly. The growth habit appears spreading. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: MEKONG 10'C Came from the breeding program of David Sturrock in West Palm Beach, Fl and was a cross between an Edward and a Philippine mango. It was named 'Mekong' due to its resemblance to 'Mango Mecongensis', to which it has no relation. The fruit are kidney shaped, yellow, and medium sized. The flesh is firm yet fiberless, orange in colour and has a rather unique flavour that is like a Thai mango with a resinous component. It contains a poly-embryonic seed. A relatively steady producer and the fruit are very anthracnose resistant too. It also appears to be resistant to bacterial black spot. A mid-season mango usually ripening from late June through July. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: MESK 10'C From Egypt and has small oval fruit that develop nice purple/red colour as it matures. The flesh is orange, fiberless, and rich with a good deal of spice notes to go along with a tropical fruit punch flavour which bears some resemblance to that of the Kesar mango. The tree is a vigorous grower with vertical growth habit, and seems to produce well while possessing good disease resistance. The fruit have a short shelf life however and tend to turn soft while still on the tree. They ripen well when harvested mature firm. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: MUN KHUN SEE 10'C Sometimes written 'Mun Kun See or simply 'Khun See'. From Thailand where it is primarily consumed green, though it may be eaten ripe as well.

MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: PIM SEN MUN 10'C Also called 'Phimsen Mun'. This is an extremely productive mango. If you like green mangoes, you will love this one! As with many Thai mangoes, this variety must be eaten green to fully enjoy its unique apple-like qualities. It has a crunchy, crisp texture with a pleasantly tart taste. Pick when the fruit are full-sized and green, before they ripen. For a truly different taste, try the fruit with salt and Cayenne pepper.

MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: PO PYU KALAY (LEMON MERINGUE) 10'C A unique Asian mango from Myanmar (formerly Burma). It is a small, oval-oblong yellow mango with pale yellow, fiber-less flesh with a very rich, sweet-citrus dominated flavor that most people adore. Both the trees and fruit are anthracnose resistant, but they tend to attract a lot of pests and the trees can sometimes suffer dieback problems. The fruit are either moderately or very susceptible to bacterial black spot. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.09 -- 0 1 2 3
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: ROSIGOLD 10'C The flesh is yellow, moderately firm, and completely fiber-less, coming clean off the seed. The flavour is in the classic group, with delightful stone fruit and peach notes. The later-maturing Rosigold are typically superior to the earliest fruit to ripen, but a March Rosigold is king when no other Mango are around! The flowers and small fruit are very anthracnose prone however, so is not a good choice for high-humid areas. Its early blooms in particular are most prone to anthracnose. They are ultra-early season and typically have two crops, with one occurring from March to April and a second from May to July. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: RYAN 10'C From Miami, Fl, selected by Frank Smathers and named after one of his children. The fruit are oval shaped, yellow at maturity, medium sized, with yellow flesh containing a monoembryonic seed and fiberless texture. The flavour is in the Indian-Alphonso class and is very similar to Carrie, if not as strong. Ryan is a mid-season so far, with an impressive crop given the size of the tree. The tree has been a sluggish grower, with spreading, compact habit. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.09 -- 0 1
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: S T MAUI 10'C S T Maui originated in Hawaii and was evaluated by the university of Hawaii's Research program under the name s-t (which is someone's initials, not an abbreviation for 'saint'). The fruit are round in shape, medium sized, developing striking red blush with green/yellow background at maturity. The flesh is firm, fiberless, and light yellow, often displaying unusual (but harmless) white spots. The flavour is tremendous and very unique, with a sweet and resinous spice character and a detectable note of guava fruit. The seed is monoembryonic. Though it is difficult to classify, it probably belongs in the Indian/West Indian flavour group, and it's one of the favourite tasting mango, with a nice shelf life as well. The trees are extremely vigorous growers with spreading growth habit and dense canopy. They have medium anthracnose tolerance, and set fruit well when they flower. Not precocious trees though, and have had only partial blooms during warm winters. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2 3
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: SAIGON 10'C Saigon is a name that was applied to a shipment of seeds sent to Florida from then-French Indochina by David Fairchild in 1902. The 'Saigon' was obtained from Fairchild farm, from a tree grafted off of what was considered David Fairchild's original 'Saigon'. This tree makes medium-to-large oblong shaped fruit that turn a light greenish-yellow colour at maturity. The flesh is yellow, fiberless, with an Indochinese-hybrid class flavour. Other versions of Saigon grown from seed have seen some degree of variation, with some developing pink or red blush and smaller fruit of varying shape. Because it is poly-embryonic, many Saigon trees in the early 20th century were grown from seed. Fairchild's Original Saigon is quite dwarfish in growth habit and very precocious, and fruits well in Homestead, Fl. It does appear to be a true dwarf. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 80-120 cm $143.22 -- 0 1 2
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: SEACREST/TRIPLESEC 10'C An 'Edward' seedling from the breeding program of Gary Zill. It was named after Seacrest blvd, a road running between the communities of Lantana and Delray beach. The Zill nursery now propagates it under the name 'triple-sec'. The fruit are medium sized, yellow at maturity, with fiberless flesh of *outstandingly* rich and sweet flavour with some Gary-type citrus notes and spice character. The trees look to be very vigorous growers and have produced well. Appears to be a mid-season cultivar. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: SHAMSUL ASAMAR 10'C From India and regarded as a rare Nizam-era variety and possibly an endangered cultivar. The eating quality is regarded as outstanding and some efforts have been made to keep it around in India despite other varieties receiving far more plantings. It appears to be a vigorous grower with dense foliage. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: SIA SIAM 10'C Presumably from Thailand, though there is no literature supporting this. Evidently there is a tree under this label at the Miami-dade fruit and spice park, though it's unclear if they are the same variety. The fruit are oblong in shape, develop light red/pink colour and bear some resemblance to the Maha Chanok mango, but with a fatter appearance. The flesh is light yellow, fiberless, with a regular Thai honey/floral flavour lacking any acid component. Its a very productive tree and seems highly anthracnose resistant. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.09 -- 0 1 2 3 4
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: SINDHU 10'C A project of India's National breeding program. A cross between 'Ratna' and 'Alphonso' and has been in existence for several decades. It gained a false reputation for producing 'seedless' fruit, when in reality the fruit just have small, undeveloped seeds. The fruit are considered small and of superb eating quality. 3 Gal 90-140 cm $165.35 -- 0 1
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: SMITH (HAWAII) 10'C This mango is from Hawaii, but not sure whether this is synonymous with 'Smith-Haden' or 'Smith-Wooten', which are distinct Hawaiian cultivars. It is a different variety from the Florida 'Smith' grown commercially in Bokeelia though. Flowers enthusiastically, indicating precocity. Fruit are small, oval shaped developing beautiful crimson red blush. The flesh is orange, fiberless with a paper-thin seed. Smith's flavour is in the classic group and comparable to mango like Bailey's Marvel, Maya and Ah Ping. Appears to be an early or mid-season mango. 2 Gal 60-100 cm $103.77 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 3 Gal 80-120 cm $143.22 -- 0 1 2 3 4
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: STEP 10'C This mango may be from Hawaii but, not sure. It is thought to be derived from Totapuri (aka Sandersha or Bangalore). There is a strong physical resemblance between the two, but Step has much better eating quality. The fruit are medium-to-large in size, oblong-shaped and stay relatively green with a hint of red blush when ripe. The flesh is firm, with minimal fibre and has a pleasant mild Indian/West Indian flavour. Step has grown slowly. It appears to be a mid-season fruit in Florida ripening in July, and has a rather short season. The fruit display good disease resistance and have been very popular despite Step being relatively unknown. 3 Gal 100-140 cm $155.15 -- 0 1 2
MANGO MANGIFERA INDICA: STURROCK 10'C Selected by David Sturrock in West Palm Beach, Fl in the 1960s. It was a cross between the Haden and Duncan, which Sturrock hoped would have the production of Duncan but the colour of Haden. The fruit are oval to round in shape, turning a pale yellow colour at maturity with limited pink blush. The flesh is firm, fiberless, and yellow in colour, containing a monoembryonic seed. The flavour is in the classic group. The trees are somewhat vertical growers and moderately vigorous. They have been very heavy producers.

MIRACLE FRUIT SYNSEPALUM DULCIFICUM 0'C While the actual taste of the fruit's pulp & juice are subtle, it is the consumption of foods after having the berry that is surprising. Lasting for 30 minutes to two hours, all foods become magically sweet! Vinegar tastes like sweet wine, lemons taste like lemon candy, cauliflower like sweet apple & tomatoes sweeter than ever! This effect can assist those who are looking to intake more food & calories, such as chemotherapy patients who have lost their appetite due to the metallic taste food tends to get after chemo treatment. The effects of the glyco protein masks the metallic taste so that eating can become more appealing. This can help greatly with malnourishment as enjoyment in food can be found once again. The plants are best grown in containers and they can remain in a seven gallon pot indefinitely.

PAPAYA CARICA PENTAGONA: BABACO 5'C Discovered in the mountains of Ecuador, the Babaco (buh-BAH-co) is a hybrid cultivar in the genus Vasconcellea (Vasconcellea × heilbornii; syn. Carica pentagona); a hybrid of Vasconcellea cundinamarcensis (Carica pubescens) and Vasconcellea stipulata. Usually forms a single stem and grows quickly the first year to 5-6 feet, after which fruiting starts. Big, hand-shaped leaves grow to be 18" across. Also called the Mountain Papaya, or Champagne Fruit, the Babaco is an unusual relative with hints of Papaya flavour but without the muskiness. The big, football-shaped fruits taste sort of like pineapple or kiwi, and the juicy flesh is effervescent, hence "champagne fruit". Fruits ripen one at a time throughout the year, averaging 8-10" long & weigh 1-2 lbs (max 4 lbs), and ripen to a bright golden yellow with a terrific fruity aroma! The entire fruit, including the thin skin, is edible. There are no seeds as this is a sterile hybrid. It's relatively low in sugar, so serve with a light dusting of sugar to really bring out the flavour. An attractive addition to platters as the fruit is star-shaped when sliced. Fruit rarely gets mouldy when damaged & any mould doesn't spread. Does best with moderate temperatures. Handles temperatures in the 90s (34'C), but seems to need cooler nights to thrive (below 65'F/18'C). Easily grown in a 10 Gal (40 Lt) pot indoors or out, not needing a lot of sun to thrive. One of the few fruit trees that produces well in bright shade or morning sun. Some shade from hot afternoon sun may be needed.

Some consider the flavour to be very agreeable, but it is generally bitter if steeped in hot water. Mate leaves can be blended with other herbs (such as peppermint) or citrus rind to sweeten or flavour. A subtropical dioecious evergreen, flower and fruit producing tree. Flowering from October to November and producing fruit from March to June. The flowers are small and greenish-white with four petals. The fruit is a red drupe 4–6 mm (0.16–0.24 in) in diameter. Requires consistent, regular watering throughout the year. Less susceptible to temperature, being able to withstand temperatures of –6'C, with an average annual temperature of 21-22'C. It is also able to withstand the frequent snowfalls that are attributed to the mountainous region in which it inhabits. 1 Gal 40-60 cm $26.78 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46
VANILLA ORCHID VANILLA PLANIFOLIA 10'C Vanilla plants make excellent container house plants when grown as a vine, because this type of orchid is both epiphytic and semi-terrestrial. This means it lives above the ground where its roots attach to tree trunks or other support from which it takes in water and nutrients. In growing a Vanilla vine in a pot, some support is needed for the vine to climb on and attach itself to. This can be a post or slab of wood, preferably a type that does not rot easily like cedar or cypress. Vanilla plants prefer good bright light but not hot, noonday sun. However, they won't grow well or flower in deep shade so partial sun is what they need. Vanilla grows best in warm temperatures, preferably 20-30'C. Cooler temperatures will slow down the growth. When watering, the support and the soil media are watered so the air roots as well as the potting mix have access to moisture. Generally, the potting mix is allowed to dry a little between waterings to help avoid root diseases. What initiates bloom is somewhat variable. It is thought that a dry period for a couple of months in the winter, as well as the vine reaching the top of the support and cascading off stimulates the flowering process. The blooms appear on flowering spikes that emerge at the leaf axis along the stems and many blooms will emerge from this spike over a period of weeks, usually one at a time and each flower lasts only one day. To produce vanilla beans, the flowers need to be hand pollinated, which can be done with a toothpick. 1 Gal 30-50 cm $91.29 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7

VANILLA ORCHID VANILLA POMPONA 10'C Vanilla Pompona is a Rare species of vanilla orchid. It is native to Mexico, Central America and Columbia. Pompona pods have a thicker skin and contain fewer seeds compared to Vanilla Planifolia. Pompona is one of the three most economically relevant species of vanilla, but it is also one of the least commonly used in culinary and perfumery applications. It is an amazing plant with very large leaves and will grow up the sides of palm trees. This can also be grown in the home on a trellis. The greenish yellow flowers can emerge at any time once the plant gets tall enough. You can hand pollinate the flower the day it opens and it will develop a seed pod. It takes around three months for a seed pod to mature. Once it has, you can harvest it, dry it and place it in a bottle of vodka. Six moths later you will have vanilla extract. 1 Gal 30-50 cm $102.23 -- 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
VANILLA ORCHID VANILLA TAHITENSIS (SUPER VANILLA ORCHID) 10'C Planifolia x Odorata. Vanilla, the flavour we all know and love, comes in two main varieties: Vanilla Planifolia and Vanilla Tahitensis. While they may seem similar at first glance, these two types of vanilla have distinct differences that set them apart. Tahitian (Tahitensis) vanilla beans are generally shorter, plumper, and contain a much higher oil and water content than Bourbon [planifolia] beans. The aroma is flowery, fruity with a smooth flavour. Gourmet pastry chefs love to work with the Tahitian variety, which are perfect for many applications. Tahitian vanilla is a unique and exotic variety of vanilla that is native to French Polynesia. Unlike Vanilla Planifolia, Tahitian vanilla is known for its lighter, fruitier flavour with notes of cherry, anise, and even a hint of licorice. This variety of vanilla is often used in desserts and baked goods, but it is also versatile enough to be used in savoury dishes. When it comes to growing and harvesting, Vanilla Planifolia and Vanilla Tahitensis have different requirements. Vanilla Planifolia requires hand-pollination, which makes the process of growing it much more labour-intensive. On the other hand, Vanilla Tahitensis is self-pollinating and requires less manual labour, making it a more cost-effective option. Its beans grow best in warm and humid climates. 1 Gal 30-50 cm $103.85 -- 0 1 2 3 4
