When do we get to know the correct answer? My Mango IQ is very low.

Best guess is that Squam has it correct. Some of these actually could be other things that look similar. But, if I had to bet, I would say the same as Squam.

Actually I think Jeff might be right about the first one being Pickering.

Aren't they all versions of Kensington Pride? Just kidding!

GwenninPR · « **Reply #9 on:** July 04, 2012, 07:14:21 AM »

I am going with:
Yummy, delicious, juicy, exquisite.
ambrosial, delectable, delish, heavenly.

Am I right?

Jeff could be right about the first and the last.......angles of the shots make ID more difficult. And as always, with many mangoes, it is much easier to say what it is not than to say what it is. This is especially true with some cultivars that have a tendency to vary in size, color, and to some , more limited degree, shape depending on where it is grown.

Without looking at the other guesses, here is mine:

TOP: Pickering, Nam doc mai, Cogshall, Phillipine
Bottom: Tebow, glenn, rosigold

Since my mango IQ is super-low, I'm going to go with the "wisdom of the crowds", average the results thusfar, and say:

Top: pickering, nam doc mai, cogshall, psm
Bottom: duncan or tebow, graham, rosigold

I have no idea but NDM is definitely second on the top row. GwenninPR rules since a rose by any other name is still a rose. A Tommy Atkins by any other name is still a Tommy Atkins. Why isn't the T. Atkins renamed the "Supermarket" mango? It might improve sales.

Congrats Jeff, you got it right...

top: pickering, nam doc mai, cogshall, psm
bottom: duncan, graham?, rosigold

Jeff, you da man!

HMHausman · « **Reply #16 on:** July 05, 2012, 07:04:36 AM »

I told you so......well, kind of.....I missed two of the mangoes in the initial look.....but at least I had the sense to acknowledge Jeff's thoughts on the fist and last. Good job Jeff. Squam.....you and I need to go back to mango class.

Haha, wisdom of the crowds does well again
