MRFC Articles: May 2015
http://mrfcarticles.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Articles written by Darryl McCullough. Sunday, May 31, 2015. In Florida we don't get to grow cherries, but as commpensation we can grow a great many cherrylike fruits. Many of these are in the Eugenia family. We're fortunate to have a real Eugenia expert, Ray Jones, as one of our club's most dedicated members.

On the negative side, the fruit is best if it fully ripens on the tree, and Adam reports that the birds in his neighborhood haven't b...

http://mrfcarticles.blogspot.com/2015/08/mangofesting.html
Articles written by Darryl McCullough. Sunday, August 2, 2015. It was a hit a year ago, so we scheduled it again. The Tropical Fruit Society of Sarasota's July meeting was its Second Annual MangoFest, featuring a mango tasting organized in part by your humble blogger. I wouldn't disagree with the outcome, based on the samples. It's early in the season for Keitt's, and late for Carrie's. Neither of these favorites ripened very well, and I almost didn't take them to the meeting. The Mallika's a...The aucti...
