This thread is about plants that I tried this year and won’t try again next year as well as ones that did really well.
East coast North America, zone 8/9, rainfall 120cm.

53/ Nam Dok Mai T4 mango.
This is an ultra dwarf mango that you can grow in a pot. I rarely water it more than what the rain gives. It will share its pot with small vegetables. It is tolerant of extreme heat and high winds, but I am growing mine slightly sheltered. It does need fert to produce fruit. Pest resistant. Keep above freezing.
I grew a champagne mango from seed, but a rat chewed it down to its base when it was two years old. That was the end of that mango.
