Mango - seedling (Seedling) ^9/10

Comments: -

I forgot to label it so I can't remember what type of mango it is ( I'm hopeless like that). I planted it as a seed from a mango I bought from the supermarket 3 years ago.  It started off on my kitchen window ledge and is currently in the green house. It is doing great.  I currently have a few more seeds in production.

Mango - Bowen (Seedling) ^10/10

I think it is a Bowen.  Bought from Bunnings 3 years ago in pot.  Since then I have transplanted into a bigger pot.  It is thriving.  It is in a sheltered area. Has survived 2 cold winters.  This year is currently producing flowers.  Currently preparing ground for transplanting.  Do I need to clip the top of it before planting in ground?

Bought a couple of years ago, i protected it in winter for the first couple of seasons but now its in a large pot outside fully exposed during winter and it does fine.

Last season it flowered and a few fruits set but dropped them shortly after. Its a young tree though so its common for that to happen so im not worried. So far im really happy with how its grown. Everyone told me it would not be able to survive here and will die during its first winter.
