I've watched every single one of the Truly Tropical Videos on Mangos and they are all excellent. Extremely informative and I love how she breaks down the pros and cons. I especially like how she lists whether the mango is Mono or a Polyembryonic.
In this video, I believe Gary mentioned that the Pettigrew or its seed came from a collection from the west coast?

Pettigrew came from the property of a man named Asa Pillsbury in Bradenton, Florida back in the 1940s.. Part of his orchard was still there as of a couple years ago.
It was likely a Mulgoba seedling and it shares a number of traits with Mulgoba.
Laurence Zill's first mention of it can be found here:
