MY FINAL EVALUATION OF ANGIE (although no one may care at this point). I still see two fruit on the tree, and I've got a few in the refrigerator and a few in a box. So that makes an incredibly long season from late May until now with a ton of fruit produced. Although the flesh is totally fiberless and melting, the fruit is still rock-hard when it falls from the tree when ripe so it never suffers damage. The tree is attractive and disease-free, and it's fairly easy to manage the height and size. The fruit is attractive, too, sometimes with a blush, and the flesh is deep orange. Lots of vitamins, I'd imagine.
The controversy lies in the flavor, which people seem to either love or hate. There are a few oddballs like me I guess, who are in the middle, maybe because there's so much variability from one fruit to the next. At its best it can be an 8.5, possibly 9. At its worst, you can barely finish it. But with average, non-discriminating individuals (friends, neighbors), it's hugely popular, normally eliciting the comment, "Best mangos I've ever had." (Worth mentioning that they received Pickerings, too, in the same bag.) Sooooo...if you really like the flavor, plant a tree. Or if you're planting 20 or more mango trees, include it in your collection if only to give the fruit away to your appreciative friends. Is it top-tier? Only if you're a person who REALLY likes it!
