Phoenix Mango
BurkTheMangoLover:
Please share pics of your tree or your fruit from this year. Purchased this variety in 3 gal in march and ive already had to up pot it twice and its now in 25 gal. Definitely a "super vigorous"grower. I've been tipping it with my fingernails and attempting to train it. Im so excited for this variety as i hear its in a lot of peoples top 5. share your experiences with this fruit or tree please.

Had a couple fruits, both times taste was excellent. Typical mango flavor but is extremely sweet and juicy with fruitiness definitely top tier. flesh of mango dark orange.
I put in a small 3G of Spring of 2023, has flushed 4 times this year and now is over 5ft tall. Definitely on the vigorous side
Looks like it will have an upright dense canopy, can't comment on disease resistance- but foliage is stilly pretty clean despite the metric ton of rain we've received this year. Hopefully will flower this winter.

mine definitely has an upright dense canopy as well. im pleased to hear this is your experience. looking forward to this variety more and more. this tree doesnt take much. a little fish emulsion and maybe a dash of epsom salt and everything is very green and strong.

Planted this Phoenix less then 3yrs ago. Snipped it in half i'll guess after 6 months? and branched out to 4, hard to tell in photo.
I trimmed it alot after all my trees flowers got wiped by powdery mildew this spring.
Yet to taste it, darn better next summer lol.
Its in middle of M4 & Peach Cobbler which seem same vigor. Rapid.
