My Edible Fruit Trees: Mango Trees

Mango - Thai seedling ^9/10

Comments: - Grew this tree from seed from a Thai mango bought in Cabramatta. The stem has a copper colour - quite different from our other mango trees. It produced one mango in 2022 which was very tasty. So far this variety seems disease resistant. In 2024 got a large crop of mangoes, all disease free.

2.05.24- the NDM graft died in jan 2024. i bought new NDM in May 2024. I just might be grafting this on existing 3 yrs old rootstock.

Mangosteen Purple (Seedling) ^9/10

Comments: -

Five year old seedlings(2 years inground). Protected in winter with green house cover. Purple mangosteens apparently don't like being too close to the sea! I'm 300 meters away and both seem to be responding well and growing just as fast as the achachas. The spot has almost 360 protection from wind. House on one side, shed on the other, fence behind and a raised garden bed infront with shade cloth. Soil is high organic mix, with 20% clay and 10% sand. Only using Rainwater which I apply once weekly durign heatwaves and high avg temps

Mango - Alfonso (Grafted) ^7/10

Comments: -

Good looking wide-spreading tree. Supposed to be one of the favourite mango varieties in India. Have had a few fruit in 2017. Not as tasty as my other mango varieties, but will check taste in next few seasons before giving a verdict. Susceptible to disease so got very few fruits.

Any luck with fruit set?

Yes, had some fruit set last year but only 3 mangoes. The Sydney weather this Spring has been good so expect to get more fruit staying on the tree.

Mango - Bowen Seedling (Seedling) ^8/10

Comments: -

Very tasty fruit, but fruit set depends very much on the weather being right at flowering time, so some years get very little fruit. In 2017 got a huge crop due to the combination of dry weather at flowering time and good rain after fruit set. But in subsequent years rain caused disease and got very few mangoes.

Did you grow it from seed? Ive had many getting off to a wonderful start in my worm farm but thought that they wouldnt do here in Warragul. ive got one thats come up with the compost from the worm farm in my large mint pot. think I'll just keep it all well fed and see what happens .

Yes, it is grown from seed. I think they should also survive in Warragul. Cheers!

thanks Linton, Ive certainly got nothing to lose by trying.

Lemon Drop Mangosteen (Seedling)

Comments: -

Plant arrived in May 2020 in great condition with soil still damp. Will plant this into a pot after 1-2 weeks outside and provide updates. 

We will see how it copes with winter in Toowoomba - may have to bring it inside on cool nights.

Spring 2020: After being brought in every night during winter, now growing well.

September 2021: Both died over winter in Toowoomba (left outside). Interestingly, the Achachas survived.

Mango - Calypso (Seedling) ^8/10

Comments: -

This mango is a Calypso seedling I planted in 2012. It has a very small and compact growth habit and is just over a meter tall at 7 years old. I transplanted it into a 130L pot thinking that it was root bound in its original 60L pot only to discover that it had a very small root system and was nowhere near filling its original pot. This probably explains its dwarf growth habit.

this is the only mango that currently grows in my yard that doesn%u2019t require any spraying of fungicides to control anthracnose. It seems to have a very high natural resistance to this disease. It has just started flowering in 2019 and has set many fruit. Hopefully they will hang on till maturity and taste at least as good as the original Calypso.
