My buddy gave me a couple under ripe nam doc mai that blew off his tree and they actually ripped up enough to enjoy. They didn't have full flavor but the best mango is the one your eating right now. The lemon merangue has to be tied for one of my favorite though. I'm not a big green mango fan though. Maybe I just need to try it green in a recipe. I was told to use a cheese grater and top a salad with it but I let the nam doc mangos get ripe instead of eating green. The ppk seedling from last year is already pushing 5' and starting to branch out, wow! Good luck with your tree!
