Default Unknown variety from Mexico

My neighbor has this variety growing in his yard. He doesn't really know the name. His father brought it from Mexico a long time ago.



Any ideas.? Very sweet and tasty.

Mexicans sure do love their Manzanos... They aren't bad once they get spots, too acidic when just yellow where I prefer most bananas.

I have bought 'manzanos' from the store. These do not taste the same. Could be the difference between eating home grown and store bought. I also thought manzanos were tall. These all fruit at about 7 or 8 feet.
