I like sapodillas. I have two planted in the same spot for better pollination - prolific and Sawo Manila. Quick growin and flowering within a few months of going in the ground. Prolific is a leggy grower, Sawo Manila is much more compact.

I have never tried the fruit but it sounds a little like abui so I thought I would give it a go. Growing well in both sun and shade.
