how far north have you seen mango trees and if poss the variety.
it looks like mini haden kind of.
Its not cogshall though.
what is flesh liike?
PS. this tree looks no older than 5-7yrs old.
Most mango trees of that age get more rugged looking bark on the trunk, with lichens, and algae.
I don't see these features indicative of a seasoned tree....looks like it was planted last year...from PIN.
That itself is not bad, but the problem arises when Monsanto's GM crop pollinates neighboring non patented crops in adjacent fields
. I'm going to let the cutting sit out in the sun for a bit so the wound will scab over and then plant it.
This a taxonomical renaming. Very different than a nursery deciding willy nilly to change the name of a cultivar.
At least taxonomist announce their changes and let you know what all the previous synonyms were.
