Hello everyone, even though I have not tasted a single mango from any of my trees, I want to get another mango to add to my collection. I currently have Maha Chanok, Glenn, Nam Doc Mai, Alphonso, Manilla, Valencia Pride and many seedling mangoes which I will be using for grafting later. I live in San Diego California where Mangoes grow much slower than in Florida. I typically get only 1-2 growth flushes a year and the mangoes I currently have flower every year and try to produce fruit every year but I have been removing them so that the trees can put on some size. I have tasted very few mango varieties and I don't know of any company that will ship Florida grown Mangoes to San Diego so I cannot try the mango before I plant them. From the varieties that I have tried, I like Kent and Nam Doc Mai.
I want to plant another mango that produces well. Size of the tree doesn't matter but the quality of the fruit does. I want to get a wide spectrum of magoes to plant so that I might at least really like one of the varieties that I plant. I was thinking of adding, Graham, Pickering, Carrie, Lemon Zest, Mallika or Julie. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Simon
