Having lived in Dendermonde and Leuven in Belgium for a few years, i agree, it will be tough with your climate, but we've got members here from Russia who are growing tropical plants. If they can do it, so can you.
Do you have a greenhouse that you can use for the winter? Do you have plans for supplemental light?
Groetjes terug van uit het natte Nederland :-)
not at the moment i was thinking of keeping it in a big pot for the rest of the year sitting on a warm spot in the house. till its a bit more mature (its only 1 1/2 months old)
you have any tips on what kind of temperatures i should stay at for this little guy?
Temps - keep it indoors and you'll be fine as long as it gets enough light. Don't over-water the plant either as the roots will rot out on you.
As for growth, over the next year or so it may only double in size or it could really take off - depends on the genetics. I've got 2 mango's that I started last June that are about 20 inches high and have 4 sets of leaves, 2 of them are about 24 inches high with about 6 sets of leaves and my star performer is about 36 inches high now and has all kinds of growth and is taking off.
All depends on the genetic lottery.
