Almost bought one but I fear it will be too big for my greenhouse.
The hardest plants to grow are often those most worth growing.

Big difference between a seedling and a grafted tree.  Seeds can be found for sale at times in the buy/sell....

Wonder if the taste compares to any of the top tier Mangos.

I think the film maker might have exaggerated the rarity of the wani mango a bit for dramatic effect.

They could of scrap the whole expedition and wait for the Wani to hit eBay 😊.
