My Edible Fruit Trees: Stone Fruit

Mango - Calypso (Seedling) ^8/10

Comments: -

This mango is a Calypso seedling I planted in 2012. It has a very small and compact growth habit and is just over a meter tall at 7 years old. I transplanted it into a 130L pot thinking that it was root bound in its original 60L pot only to discover that it had a very small root system and was nowhere near filling its original pot. This probably explains its dwarf growth habit.

this is the only mango that currently grows in my yard that doesn%u2019t require any spraying of fungicides to control anthracnose. It seems to have a very high natural resistance to this disease. It has just started flowering in 2019 and has set many fruit. Hopefully they will hang on till maturity and taste at least as good as the original Calypso.

Tropical apricot - Eugenia myrcianthes (Seedling) ^2/10

Comments: -

Sounds nice , should get fruit 2019/20 ,lost flowers last year as I planted it from a large pot . Update 28/10/19 produced one apricot looking fruit that I had bagged till it dropped ripe . Tasted horrid , sweet with a tart tropical fruit taste ( mango/apricot ) juicy, and a strong pungent garlic flavour that is so bad that I can't believe this was sold to me as a fruit tree ,it's yuck . However I will give it another year to see if fruit improves . 

I did not buy this from Daleys.

Question: Its flowers a lot but not fruit set

Comments

Plethora of flowers but only 1-2 fruit set. This is year i only got 2 Peaches, they both are VERY BIG and exceptional quality My garden is Bee friendly and has many bee attracting plants and shrubs. Also fruit trees next to it ( Gulf gold Plum and Angel low chill peach ) they all get a heavy fruit set. so i am not concerned about pollination or pollinators. I do administer Winter dormancy spray ,when tree is dormant, with LIME SULFUR once every year but only when its dormant and not when in bud break or bloom. not sure why i may have a poor fruit set despite plethora of blooms ?

Fruited close to 20 peach in 2018, Nice tasty peach

Spicezee - Nectarine x Plum ^5/10

Comments: -

The first NectaPlum%uFFFD from Zaiger Genetics: a white-fleshed, nectarine-peach-plum hybrid. Skin is dark maroon at fruit set, and turns pale pink when ripe. Fully ripe fruit is unparalled in flavor, and both nectarine and plum traits are easily detectable. Very productive tree is also quite ornamental. Tremendous purplish pink bloom in the spring, followed by a flourish of red leaves which mature into lush green in late summer.
