Giant Thaiwan mangoes for sale in Sunnybank ,Varying in size up to 1Kg in weight $8.99 per kilo, they are huge.

David says...
No pun intended but gimme a break ,this is all strickly in the line of duty. Cant help myself checking out all the Asian fruit shops at this time of year so many goodies to be found.shops to be found are opposite the post office in sunnybank centre (Coles side ) the other is across the road diagonally not woollies side but across the road from there.These mangoes are enormous, Kwan in shape but beautiful dull rose coloured skin. Bought 3 not soft yet but if correct same as I bought 4 yrs ago, sooooooo much flesh.

Hi Sternus, I m south side of Brisbane where are you located.

David says...
Ouch, that's a long way out,email me and ill see what I can do for you. dphuntbrisatgmaildotcom

David says...
Hi VF just lucky I quess.

David says...
They look good wonder what variety they are , good spotting.

Mike Tr says...
They are Sam ru du and sometimes wrongly called Asian queen and chocadam.

David says...
Mary would love to get my hands on some seed of this mango,you lucky thing you.

MaryT says...
Thanks, Mike. I do have the Bowen but no flowers/fruit yet.

David if you want the seeds I will send them to you :)

MaryT says...
OK David I have sent you an email: the stones are kinda small and I wonder if there are seeds inside.

MaryT says...
No problem, David. I must admit I made a boo boo trying to open a couple of them to see if there's a seed inside - they're there but I also damaged them. The seeds were surprisingly large for the size of the stones so although I did not push my butter knife in very far it still cut the seeds which were delicate. Don't worry I still have two larger ones I have not yet eaten so I'll save the stones for you. There is a chance I might visit Paddys again before too long and if I see them I'll buy more.

Also I just read that the seeds are edible.

David says...
I know they are huge and expensive. Seeds are small and grow at a rate of knots,have a tree already nearly 2m high,but still in a pot will plant out this Autumn.

MaryT says...
David I am putting the mango stones in the post today. I did not take the seeds out so I hope they will arrive OK.

VF says...
I'm feeling rather envious atm and am drooling re the above posts. :)
The only mangoes I've managed to land in the fruit bowl this week are Honey Gold, Pearl and Palmer. (Passed on the Keitt at $3 a pop, and the Calypso's, as they have a funny after-taste this late in the season.)
Am looking forward to my first Kwan and King Thai this season - not sure how much longer to ripening....my Persimmons have more colour, and they're usually good for picking in March/April.

The giant thai mango Seed David sent me a week ago has sprouted. They are viable.

Thanks again David

VF - Dont let the KT fully ripen on the tree. Pick it early when just starting to colour and allow to ripen inside. Otherwise when tree ripened they look spectacular but the bottom quater get jellied and the whole thing tastes a bit flat, like an over ripe R2E2.

MaryT says...
David I sent two mango seeds to you at 8am last Thursday - have they arrived? I worry that they will be mouldy otherwise. I gave them a wash and packed them in kitchen paper then sent them in a zip lock bag. Maybe I should have sent them dried?

Brain says...
I tried to research whether they are poly or mono but couldn't find any info. My guess is that it could be a poly, as I believe it is related to thai mango strains and most of them are poly.

David42 says...
Hi all ,did grow one from seed several yrs ago, now 2m high will plant this this coming Autumn,leaves are narrow and long also very dark green in colour.Seem to recall only one shoot came up so maybe mono not poly.

David42 says...
Called into sunnybank tonight and picked up the last Taiwan mangoes. 2 Diff kinds 2 same as before light red base on yellow and 1 green base with bright yellow blush two totally diff cultivars, the green /yellow was much like Kwan same shape but without the aroma.Veeery nice

Brain says...
Didn't realise there were 2 types, both of mine are the green/yellow combo. Figners crossed for when I open #2 up. Nothing ventured nothing gain but paying $7.5 for a half ediable mango is poor form.

TMary says...
David I just remembered the seed that I left on top of the fridge - opened the plastic bag to find this :(

Thanks, David. Time will tell; I hope it survives. Summer is over in Sydney so I might keep this one indoor?
