- Two of our most popular mango varieties are 'Lemon Meringue' and 'Lemon Zest'. Both are excellent, but they are different mangos. Learn more about the histories of both mangos and what each one tastes like.
Check out our videos on monoembryonic vs polyembronic...

Our family loves your very informative and entertaining shows! Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy day to share your knowledge with us! We are new to Florida and you helped us a lot in choosing and growing tropical fruit trees. ( Mangoes are our absolute favorite fruits also!) We are looking forward to seeing more of your videos, and meeting you sometime soon!
Your right lemon Zest is on another level, looooooooove the zest !
Tastebuds on overload. PPK is soooo good! And yes PPK is perfect quick snack but ya eat 2-3. Guess I better add to my taste list for Pine Island this weekend. Thanks so much Chris. Always full of great information.
On point tasting analysis, I have 2 small tree of both, and I really enjoy these varieties,, love the video and looking forward to getting some more mangos from truly tropical
I'm from New Zealand and live in a temperate climate zone 9b and I am growing 3 mango seedlings and each of them have grown very different ones small but healthy one is big but the leaves a slightly curled and one is medium sized and has the healthiest leaves and they are about 6 months old
Cold Hardy?
I can never get anything beyond the regular Manila, Glenn, and Kent here in Phoenix. :( For all those who will say grow your own, I have tried but after last year freeze here, I have given up on it with 4 years down the drain. I need to go on a vacation during Mango season to Florida.
Sorry to hear that your mango project got derailed!
The dogs are so funny! Hahaha
Lemon Zest is much much better than PPK and one of my favorite
If you had to choose to grow either Lemon Merengue, Lemon Zest or Orange Sherbet, which one would you choose?
I would grow the OS and graph the other 2 to it.
I purchased a bunch of PPK at TT fantastic Mango !
Indeed... totally identify with your comment on wanting others to try a good fruit too... excellent cast in this video 😁
I've had several PPK's, but only one Lemon Zest.
I'm surprised PPK is called Lemon Meringue. To me it taste like tangerine, especially by the skin. The Lemon Zest didn't have this extra flavor by the skin.
I believe PPK and LZ are poor producers, whereas Orange Sherbet is not. I wonder how Orange Sherbet's flavor compares to PPK and LZ.
Sweet!
😋
I know them by Manila Mangos
Dubbing thee Mango Martha Stewart
I know this is a one-in-a-million shot you can answer this but I have a mango tree and I don't know the variety of it if you cut it alongside the seed there's like a little dimple like a little Hollow spot that's one thing I noticed every mango has in common in this mango gets covered in Black it's not the prettiest mango the skin is covered in black spot please I hope you can answer this question???? It has a coconut cream taste to it but I don't believe it's a coconut cream mango
can I grow lemon zest from a lemon zest seed and expect the same fruit?
No. It must be grafted.
Yes! The seeds are polyembryonic for both LZ and PPK, so it is possible to split the seed into the multiple embryos and some of those will be clones of the original (but one will be different from the parent).
Usually the tallest and most vigorous ones are the clones and the odd one out is the off-type.
This is not true for monoembryonic mangos of Indian origin, but many southeast asian mangos and their hybrid offspring are polyembryonic.
Thanks, Chris. Is the Lemon Zest dwarf, semi-dwarf or full size? Also, do you have any videos on squirrel control? I notice you don't bag your fruit. I do and they still get to it!
Thank you!
Our best squirrel deterrents are
1) Reducing the airways. Squirrels prefer jumping from tree to tree instead of running on the ground.
2) Having dogs. The dogs have never caught a squirrel, but they often chase them away.
I was going to say I saw two "squirrel deterrents" in this video :)
Is one sweeter than the other?
Where can I get these?? I’m in florida
Any good fruit nursery. Zill’s, ECHO, Fruitscapes, Truly Tropical - I would call to make sure they have it though
Picked up a 25 gallon one today @ Fruitscapes on Pine Island.
Can buy plants of mangoes and ships to Saudi Arabia?
Are your very cute doggies more fond of Lemon Mirengue peel or of Lemon Zest peel
I live in South California
How or where can I purchase a lemon zest tree?
You have to order one from her website or go to Florida to buy one. I live in Charlotte, if you're close I'll bring you one back when I go to pick some up.
It is against CA laws to ship mango or mango trees from FL to CA. My friend and I have tried. It was confiscated. We did not know why. Then they told us.
