Mangoes, get a couple of anthracnose resistant varieties for best east side results...look for the small - med. sized trees, but you can keep them pruned down (some mangoes still want to eventually be really big trees, but they are not as persistent as some other trees, like non-dwarf avocados, that will try to grow 20' every year...
Great news for you - PlantIt Hawaii has their fall sale on Nov. 1 &2 when their nursery stock os for sale to the public - so visit their web & figure your future trees...& most dwarf varieties do produce quite nicely! http://plantithawaii.com/
I am EXCITED!!!! I cannot express my thanks enough for your goodwill. Do you have any opinions on Dragon fruit? They are really beautiful. That is about all I "Know". We have about six feet wide, 290 feet long ownership of land at the top of the berms. There are already a couple avocado trees producing. I was pondering mango, dragonfruit, papaya up there. What do you think? Also there is a 40ft lychee tree. Can we replant it?
