Mango scion wood or unusual rare mangoes for sale (forum)

Ben jamin starts with ...
Hi every I thought this would be a good oportunity to discover some rare mangoes and add to our collections. Recently I have discovered there are many more types of mangoes than whats found in the super market. Kensington Pride is a great tasting mango dont get me wrong but you dont see only 1 type of tomato on the shelves but it never even crossed my mind why there is only 1 mango. Im hoping to get some of the newer Zill mango varieties, so far I've found lemon zest, lemon meringue (not a zill mango but the mother of lemon zest), orange essence, orange sherbet and coconut cream. I've seen other people on the forum who have sweet tart so I know there are people who have other zill mangoes out there. Where are you?... 😀

There were many unusual Mango types known among fruit enthusiasts in Cairns when I was there many years ago.

Hi Ben Jamin
Where did you find the lemon zest and lemon meringue mangoes? I live in Cairns and would like to grow then. Scions would also be suitable.

Where did you find coconut cream? I recently discovered a seller called Ross Creek Tropicals that had Lemon Zest listed (have never seen any Zill mangoes listed anywhere before) but was out of stock.

I contacted Ross Creek Tropicals in QLD where I finally found a Zill mango listed and was informed that they will have Lemon Zest in stock in either February or March.
