The one shown Brain mind you at $9.00 each its a hard call ,told the shop owner I was after the seed.There was an Asian customer before me who bought 20.The green one has more complex flavour, good balance of sweet and sour.

Hi Ive,Would love to know what you have planted mango wise, must say the aroma from the King Thai is quite distinctive, and who is the mango guru.

Compost pile brought them to life.
Plain ones, nothing like the one's you've got.
Was hoping to drop off a couple of each type to someone who is more knowledgeable, so as to determine type.

Last year when i did buy, they did charge me $9 a kilo, but the display did say each though.

I did manage to sprout 2 seeds but both died quickly from trunk rot. :(

Just got some pearl mangos for 3.99 each at the fruit shop outside coles at sunnybank plaza. Same complex as the asian grocery store for the taiwan mango but different shop. I am not sure if the pearls are any special but i recall them being a lot more expensive last year.
