Dupois Saigon .. a mango seed that takes our heat and soil
« on: September 08, 2020, 01:29:00 PM »
I have a 2 year old in ground seedling and a newly sprouted ( since may ) seedling growing at my friends yard .
These 2 readily shot up out the ground with multiple trunks.
My 2 year old seedling is in full sun.  I protected from the heat last year , this year i noticed a big growth flush during our heat and let it be no protection for the whole summer in 110-115 degree heat we have been having. ***Huge caveat is that these plants are in my friends flood irrigated yard around other  tree mostly citrus**** . The older seedling gets the full afternoon sun.
Of all the seedlings i planted in the hole (in may) along with 10 other seeds ( store bought kent/ haden) only the dupois seed i got from Florida is growing and growing well. This is in a more protected area of my friends yard.

Just wanted to share my observations.
Mike
