San Felipe mango
« on: August 05, 2012, 10:02:22 AM »
We had our first good crop of San Felipe mangoes this year and were pleasantly surprised how good they are, nice 2lb plus size very good tasting fruit and late bearer,we still have them on the tree. It seemed to take a couple of years for the tree to get going,but certainly worth the wait.

Ate my first San Felipe this year and liked it too. But for a tree its size it should have held a lot more fruit to maturity.

Agree,we got about 20 nice size fruit,maybe next yer we will have more,it took ours forever to get going,but once it did it really took off.

Is it true that one bite of a San Felipe mango and you begin to talk like Ricky Ricardo?
