MangoFang's Yard Update March 2012
MangoFang:
So gang...here's my Palm Springs update. Funny - even with our very warm January and pretty mild February, things are flowering
at about, or even perhaps a bit later, than they did compared to last year's "normal" winter. Looks like that extra cold mike actually force blooming a little earlier. (just as the experts say!)
First up - My one year old Keitt plant - so far the most amazingly complex flavored mango:
Edward - in full flower - hope to get something from this shy bearer this year
And my new Kent, really sending out the blossoms:
This is Glenn - I discoverd the watering line had shifted to a dribble, so that's why it looks a bit dry. Anyone with artificial
watering systems - don't ever assume they are operating normally - got to check on them every so often...
Mahachanok - looking good and stiff!
This is what I know call "Backyard Manny" - my manila, the second one I got, that's been moved around a bit and finally settled in to this spot, now awaiting grafts to really spice her up! She's tall and lean, but with some sprouts near the ground - all great grafting points for the future
Rosigold - into her 4th year, with only one delightful fruit to show for it - every tree has a personality to go along with it's reputation doesn't it?
..and my little Pickering - so cute!
I'll post a couple more, later, as I ran out of time tonight....thanks, gang.......GaryFang

Nice! Congrats! :)
Pancrazio:
Well, Gary, you have pretty much the garden of my dreams... I think you only need a "coconut cream" and a a ndm #4 to make it perfect to me!
