Contact me and come down and see for yourself if you so desire.
Lastly one can never forget the stupendous potential of Valencia Pride and Keitt and Rosigold.
My first tree was a Haden in the mid 80’s and I hated the turpentine flavor which I used to call gasoline flavored. Never ate it again. Never ate a mango again till I tasted Glenn in the early 90’s. This variety was shockingly edible and good. I can appreciate a spicy mango like Dwarf Hawaiians but intensely dislike Maha. So this is how my tastes run.
My favorite ones now are and yes in order

PC

Kathy but it’s in a dark space
Fruit punch
But all my trees had extensive pruning last year so it may not be their fault for not producing.
Sweet Tart is a dream in every way. I hope it’s relative Kathy will be as great because it has a not describable taste that is sooo delicious and I’m planting about 12 more.
