No ... seriously, did Portia say mangoes

why? yuh fraid dem crown yuh? LOL

YES - if Mosiah will ensure my protection, then me will venture down there!

put it this way. Canning Callalloo is more energy and labour intensive and they sell for about the same price.

I'll never buy canned callaloo. I see acquaintances buy it, but I notice that the vibrant green color changes when it is canned. And for me, my veggies must have that vibrant color.

Karl - I usually get custard apple in the Farmers Market in Georgia. Anyway, I was lucky to get one last Nov. when I was in Morant Bay.

You should be able to plant some in Florida.

I grew up with a tree next door, right on the fenceline with half the fruit hanging over,.

Didnt like it!

We had wild bird pepper, tamerind, june plum, seville oranges, acerola cherries, 3 mango trees with 7 kind of mangoes, plus blackie next door, coconut, panagnat (pomegrenade) jumbiline, ackees and breshey, bananas, papaya, honey dew melon and cantelopes, passion fruit and next door there was star apple. Cant say we wer ever short of fruit, though we had not my favourite...eatioti apple (Otahiti). No pineapples either.

At my relatives place in Portmore, they had guavas, sea grapes, soldier plums, tangerines, oranges, coconut to stone dog and many other types of mangos.

Only once ever dd I eat Jamboline, a sweet fleshy purple fruit, of which 1 f 2 reputed trees in the island was in Span Town (near old record office).

I don't remember ever seeing this in JA... it grows in Trinidad, not prolific but I've seen it around.

[Willi]

Never seen it in Jamaica, but we get them at work for lunch all the time. Ramboutan...that is what the Thais call it!

Another lychee like fruit from Asia is the Longhan!
