bay area Manila Mango showing growth buds..
Comments (3)The one that bore fruit in 06 Tammy took a hard hit..alive but it might be a two steps forward last summer-two back this winter. The larger Manila-and it always has looked slightly different to me, just looks like it was chilled.No dead frosted leaves. Last year it flowered very early then the early summer wilt. It has a good sized trunk thickness,will to survive.It's not even in my best warmest area-it was at the time I planted it,that's another story- When the buds look a little more pronounced,and that could be just days with the temps here in Hayward reaching low 70's right now,I will post it. I've done it,it can be done. Luck -or lack of bad luck- helps....See Moremanila mango
Comments (2)The Manila mango trees perform best in warm climates. Grow Manila mango trees in full sun sites with nutrient-rich, well-draining soil. Work 3 inches loam, 2 inches peat moss, 2 inches leaf mold and 1 inch perlite into the soil to a depth of 10 to 12 inches to improve its nutrition, aeration and drainage. Plant your Manila mango tree at the same depth it grew in its nursery container. Provide Manila mango trees with ample moisture during the spring and summer months to ensure the production of healthy fruit. Water your Manila mango trees every seven to 10 days to maintain evenly moist soil; apply up to 2 inches of water each time you irrigate....See MoreManila Mango Tree Pruning Advice
Comments (34)Mother Nature "pugged" my Mango in 2012. Svp.You ever thought of taking off that thinner lower left branch? It would make the tree a perfect single trunk. Mine came back triple trunked...and I'm waiting for the day when cutting it to one still leaves a good sized plant. My climate is not very warm..so replacement growth is slow- compared to the rest of this board in Fla,soucal,Az. I'm in the SF bay area....See MoreDifference between Ataulfo and Manila mangoes?
Comments (34)No. so called Philippine Mango or whatever are the ataulfo. The 'Ataúlfo' mango, also called young, baby, yellow, honey, Adaulfo, Adolfo, or Champagne, is a mango cultivar ORIGIN from Mexico. Ataulfo mangos are golden yellow and generally weigh between 6 and 10 ounces, with a somewhat sigmoid shape and a gold-blushed yellow skin. Do understand where mangos came from. They didnt hatch. Hence not originated in the philippines. The growing seasons with tropical weathers make each philippine grown Ataulfo unique tasty sweet distintivtive and could call its own cultivar. You want to taste prize winning try The most flavourful, Tastiest, Juiciest of all, Banganapalli Mangoes from Ulavapadu India. i just bought a box 9 Lbs or 4 kilo for $50.00 thats less than retail. sounds crazy but there huge and a taste of heaven....See Morelittleluey
