Florigon is the same mango as gary | Jose R. Diaz - Homestead, FL 11-Jun-2009
Weed warning: Classifying the mango as a potential weed may generate some chuckles as most people would be quite happy to have a wild mango growing along their fenceline however it can cause some concern when upstream of protected native areas and in the sub/tropical areas they can be seen self seeding downstream or down hill of cultivated mango trees.
