Mango trees flowering in winter in zone 10a?

[Weboh]

Many of the mango trees in my area seem to be flowering:



Is that normal for this time of year in Florida? I understand mango season begins in June. Does it just take 5 months from flowering for fruit to ripen? Is it just a little early this year because of our mild winter?

The tree in your photos is a loquat, not a mango.

Ooh, neat! Hopefully I'll be sampling loquats soon then. A lot of mango trees do still appear to be flowering. I guess I'll get a picture sometime to be sure. Are your mango trees flowering early because of the mild winter?

Some. In Palm Beach county the temperatures werent as cool in December, so a lower percentage are flowering. It will take some more cold weather to trigger the rest.
