MANGO TREE, Mangifera indica

The Mango Tree is one of the most luscious of all tropical fruits with flavours varying from exceptionally sweet to turpentine. By planting different varieties of mangoes harvesting can be extended for up to 12 weeks.

Mango - Bowen

Most common variety grown due to its excellent quality fruit. This selection is seed grown from selected quality fruit. Bowens are naturally polyembryonic hence are virtually true to type from seed. Cropping begins in 3-4years, with identical fruit quality to grafted trees.

Mango - Glenn

Sweet, juicy flavoured Mango with no fibre. It has moderate resistance to Anthracnose and very good resistance to Bacterial Black Spot. An excellent early variety. Average wt. 350gms.

Mango - R2E2 (Seedling)

Very attractive large fruit with good, sweet flavour. High flesh to seed ratio with very slight fibre. It has proven to be a consistent cropper over a range of climates. Vigorous growth habit. Seedlings are polyembryonic and hence true to type.

Mango - Kasturi

A small crisp and spicy flavoured mango that is ideal for eating fresh and cooking. Vigorous grower.

Mango - Rick's Bowen

Yellow skinned, medium size, only slight fibre, excellent quality. Sets well in subtropics.

Mango - Kwan

Similar to the Nam doc mai, but twice the size. It has elongated fruit of a consistent light yellow. This variety has excellent disease resistance and is a heavy cropper. Performs very well in south eastern Qld and the northern coast of NSW.

Mango - Florigon

Definitely the winner in the taste department. The soft sweet flesh melts in your mouth. The fruit has a small seed and virtually no fibre. Considered by some to be too small for the market it certainly makes up for its lack of size with taste. Yellow skinned, excellent quality fruits. Sets well in subtropics. Moderately resistant to Anthracnose, susceptible to Black Spot. Average wt. 300g. (Video - Grafting a Florigon Mango)

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.
