You have explained it the best in all the videos I've seen
Best Mango information on CZcams by far!!!! Thanks a lot!!
Thanks!
A tip: watch series at KaldroStream. I've been using them for watching all kinds of movies lately.
@Benicio Lyric Definitely, I have been watching on KaldroStream for since november myself :)
Wow! Glad i found your channel. My name is John and I'm a born and raised conch from marathon. And i love mangos! I used to have guava, avacados, sugar apples, key lime, sour oranges, bananas, and one mango trees! Have no idea what kind of mango tree it was my dad planted it. And it was his favorite. He passed away in 2013. And now after this hurricane all my trees are gone! So now i have to start from scratch so I'm going to dedicate the new garden to him so nothing but mangos and i want variety! I think your vids are going to help me alot! Thanks! Maybe I'll plant some key lime too
You are the Best mango expert and Har too.. I learned so much from these videos !
I can't stop binge watching these. I found you through Lychee videos, ironically, but I'm definitely planting mangos after watching all of these.
Great video, greetings from Trinidad and Tobago
Thankyou Chris for your videos,*** western Australia
Really appreciate the effort you are making with these videos!!
Thanks!
Exactly what I was looking for. I wish I had found it three hours ago. LOL
what a wonderful video tnX
Thank you for your videos.
I love your videos. Do you have a recommendation for 3 to 5 varieties planted together so that you have a wide fruiting timeline so that you could have mangoes for most of the season.
Rosigold, Rosa, Dwarf Hawaiian are the earliest varieties
Keitt, M-4, Beverly, Honey Kiss, Neelum are some of the latest varieties
pickering is sooo good
Nice video.
Thanx
Love it!
I keep my kent about 8 to 12 feet tall and 8 to 14 wide. I get about 100 mango per year keeping it that size.
That's impressive 👍
thanks
Love your videos. I learned a lot about growing mangoes. Is your grove in Florida? My mango tree (haden) did great in the lower Keys but since I moved to SW Florida it's a real challenge growing mangoes when the temperature drops into the '20's like it did last week.
Try to use boron fertilizer for julie during flowring stage. It will help to set fruit.
Wow i love mango friedns
Very good
sindhri here in sindh but their are many more like chaunsa ratol sonaro etc
What is the price of these each varieties in America ? We also have mango garden .. a sweetest variety called himsagar, sale at 40 - 50 rupees in my district .. 73 rupees is one dollar ... I want to tell you about another tree species .. langra which have unique tasty flavour my favorite ... Gopal bhog have good taste they came early in mango season .. rakhal bhog is a species which is sweet and sour as un ripe .. people eat it raw .. make pickle .. some we eat it raw with some salt and paper
Great info!! thank you..
Thanks!
Great video! Maybe you could do one on the fruiting times so one can have fruit year round!
I have a mango tree not big at all and have no idea what it is the mango was store bought and i grew it from seed
Your mango is what you got. It's unique coming from a monoembryonic seed.
very good info.
Thanks!
I have 9 different varieties of dwarf tree in a pot. Now I would like to plant in the ground. Could u plz tell me spacing required for dwarf mango tree between mango trees to plant in a single row of all 9 mangoes. Total area is about 35 metres single row. Plz tell me space required between dwarf mango tree
Spacing will depend on how much you prune them. If you prune often, you can space as close as 2 meters. Often people want the trees to grow bigger, so they plant them further apart. It seems that you could have all your plants in one row.
Thank you for this video and helping us, new to fruit trees, make better decision. At this moment, I'm interested in the Nam Doc Mai #4. In your video, how old is the Nam Doc Mai #4 tree and how tall do they get if you don't prune it?
Nam Doc Mai #4 may achieve size over many years. But it is a very slow grower. It will produce fruit at a diminutive size.
Thank you for your response, Chris.
ignore my question in another video, this one answers it!
My Mallika was doing well in its pot through the winter here in Kentucky.
When the weather was warm enough I set it outside. Over a few weeks it dropped all of its leaves. The leaves turned dark and slowly dropped off.
The bottom below the first branching seems alive but above it appears dead.
Should I cut it back at the branching site and hope it puts out more leaves or is there anything I can do to save it?
Tganks
When will you have mango tasting day this year. Do you also ship to Texas? Thanks
Pls show how to make soil mixing to grow new mango tree
I love julie! But I was told it’s not an easy tree
Would you reccomend nam doc mai in a pot? Im from midwest & am looking for a tree that will survive potting.
Do you have a Palmer? Love to see a video of this as fruits ripen very very late here in Southern Australia
Yes, we have a Palmer... Last year we had very few fruit on it, but this year looks good
Ur doing a great job, could u plz tell me spacing between 2 Kent mango tree grafted on standard root stock, is 5 metre spacing is ok,
Spacing depends on how large you will let the Kent mango trees get. There are people (and groves) that do ultra high density planting with mango trees spaced 2 meters apart. But to do that, you would have to trim your trees early and often to keep them small. 'Kent' is one of the larger varieties of mango trees.
The mango trees in our grove are spaced about 6-7 meters apart. We keep our trees about 3-4.5 meters tall.
Here's a problem I cant find an answer to. I have a Manila and a Ataulfo that have lots of fruit on them for 9 and 6 six year old trees in ground here in the S.F. bay area. Only, all summer has gone by and they have not flushed ANY new growth...its all going into the fruits.
How do I break that with only 2 more warm months to go before the cool down starts?
Fruit production takes energy and slows vegetative production. Thinning fruit may be an option for you.
Chris I’m thinking of plantings a carie or mahachanook mango tree. What would you say the size is of these two trees? I have a medium size yard and don’t want to grow a large tree. Also can you describe the taste of these two? Which tree grows better in south florida?
What about coconut cream or little gem mango for small space? Thanks
where can I get a couple of Nom Dok Mai Mango seeds. if you have some to sell?
Nice video. You do not recommend mallika?
Really great info, I know you said the Pickering can be a container tree. Are all the varieties can be grown in containers and do well too?
Yes, all can be grown in containers
@@TrulyTropical can the container varieties be kept under 7ft and in a 15 gallon pot max? If not all which varieties would you recommend?
Hello. You didn´t include Mallika or Carrie. Don´t you like them?
I love your videos about mango varieties. I have an Nam Dok Mai #4, but I want to graft a Keo Savoy to it. Do you have any scions for sell? Do you sell mango and ship to California?
Which one of these is also cold hardy?
I want to plant one in 9b
Possibly Pickering, but doesn't like frost. Will need prevention during events under 30. Can survive dips for a couple of hours if it warms later
Do you sell trees? I went to website and only saw scions. Also, are all Nan Doc Mai the #4, or it that a specific cultivar that is dwarf? Thanks
Wow!, nice job on explanation , where can I gets some scions , anybody knows?🌱😊
How long does it take for a mango tree ton bear fruit when grown from seed?
Store bought varieties.
5-12 years average
Where can I get a Julie mango tree to buy
How do you sell your mango? Can u pls. do a video on marketing mangos? Thanks !
We will probably do a video on selling mangos when it gets close to mango season.
I'm not sure if a video on marketing mangos would be helpful. We have a unique situation.
Can we grow alphonso mangoes in backyard plz guide thanx
Guimaras , Do you like this mango ?from Philippines
Question about the growth height of all the trees mentioned in this video. If you don't prune these trees how tall will they get?
Best fruit producing mango trees need pruning. They respond to pruning. Most mango trees get large with age. Even those described as "small" can become 30+ ft trees with time. Julie does stay small in Florida, grows to 30 ft in Jamaica 🇯🇲
The keitt variety, what kind of plant can you plant? 🙂
What kind of mango I can grow here in Orange County California ?
Hello Chris, I have a Carrie and a Pickering. My Carrie is flowering now. Do you know what time of year the Pickering starts to flower?
It really depends on the weather.
Harummanis mangoes
Hi my name is Martin is there any possible way you might know where I can buy a Hatcher mango tree I would love to have won the frost ride live in Zephyrhills killed off my mangoes so now I have building a pole barn with the fiberglass roof so that I can grow them and protect them from the cold. I’d like to buy other mangoes to bed there’s so many and I don’t know which ones to choose I know I like Hatcher I like the Asian mangoes some of the other ones like Carrie golden nuggets probably my favorite if you could help me out really would appreciate it thank you so much
Hatcher is extremely susceptible to mango bacterial black spot, so it's not being planted anymore. Almost any other variety would be better to plant.
Hello Chris, what other varietie is the Baptiste close to in flavor?
I can't think of any variety that tastes similar...
Truly Tropical ok and I'll have to listen to hear the taste description again🍏
Chris,
I am in California, how can I get my hands on some these Dwarf Mango variety???
She will mail scions. Won't ship mango trees at this time to California
Please give us a list of mango varieties and how short they can be kept without hurting the production of the fruit I need no more than 7 feet tall tree
How short mango trees can be kept depends on how much you trim your tree. All of the mangos mentioned in this video can be kept at 7 feet or less.
Truly Tropical are their lychees and guavas like that
I don't grow guavas, but I suspect you can keep them small. It's definitely possible to keep lychee at 7 feet
Truly Tropical thanks!
Good morning
WHERE IN FLORIDA GROWS MANGO TREES
Wen is the best time of the year to do buding of mangos ?
Thanks for watching. You may find the answer to your question on this video. But, we will also ask Chris. czcams.com/video/neMo29p8Khw/video.html&pp=ygUUc2Npb24gdHJ1bHkgdHJvcGljYWw%3D
Chris, what makes a mango tree small? Is it the rootstock?
There are a few dwarfing rootstocks that have been discovered but not yet released. However, all of the varieties mentioned in this video are just small trees. They are grown on the same rootstocks as large trees, but they never get as big.
Can you keep haden small?
Under 15 ft is possibly, but it's lots of work. Haden likes to grow large.
I live in Waikoloa, Hawaii. I’m looking for a mango tree to plant. I love my Haden mangoes but I’m looking for a small-medium tree. Is the Julie tree similar in taste to the Haden?
Julie is a heavily spiced flavor more Indian 🇮🇳 type flavor, Haden is classic flavored, very mild undertoned Indian flavors
Hi chris my name is Dinesh Patel. How i can order from you alphonso mango grafting brach. I am also looking for kent as well. Thank you.
Email us at trulytropicalpresents@gmail.com
Hi. What r the general prices for all the mango trees that u just mentioned. And the criteria would be that they r of bearing age. Thanks.
Do you guys also sell superior mango cultivars in 3 to 5 gallon pots.
3, 7, 15 and 25 gallon mango trees 🌳
Chris, how about Irwin mango? have you tried growing it? I hear its a dwarf variety and very delicious mango.
Irwin is a very popular in Japan where they are able to produce mango fruit in greenhouses.
When compared with the varieties that we are able to grow in South Florida, Irwin does not rate very high. It's a good mango... reliable and productive... but the fruit do not have an exceptional flavor or texture.
Good to know. Thanks Chris!
The main downfall of Pettigrew is that it can taste terrible, perhaps due to mineral deficiencies.
How about indian mango are they small tree ?
Himsagar USDA is a small tree grown in Florida
Do you sell seeds? Thanks. :)
Do you grow Irwin?
Chris, Where in Florida are you located?
Del Ray Beach
What is the cold hardiest mango?
Good question... will do a video soon on that
pickering?
Walter Zill thought Pickering may be slightly less cold sensitive. Old trees can withstand cold better than young ones
Brasil 😉
Help! I would like the find a dwarf or semi dwarf carabao mango ( Manila mango)
