I grew this from a mango that I bought from the local fruit market. I had it growing in a pot for 2 years and put it into the ground when we moved home 2 years ago. It bore a single mango whilst in the pot and then nothing the next year. This year it produced a dozen wonderful fruit.

April 2015: The tree has put on quite a bit of growth this year, some of which I have pruned off to attempt control vigour and tree shape.

June 2016. Not much growth in the tree for this year and it produced a similar crop to last year. Anthracnose can be an issue

December 2016 A nice crop (better than expected) 20 large mangoes were picked this week as the possoms had found the tree. My experience with this tree in our climate is that the fruit can be taken off when it blushes around mid December and will ripen quite quickly.

Dec 2017 Big crop holding now but have had some natural thinning. Needs pruning!
