Mango - Schneider\'s Pride

Comments: -

I didn't water regularly long enough for it to establish well and then the drought got it. I have no idea how I would get another one as I bought this just as Mr Schneider retired and closed his nursery.

Finger lime - Rainforest pearl

Comments: -

My plant is struggling. Semi-deciduous?

Jan-2010 it did not make it through the very dry period before recent flooding rain, despite weekly watering. My conclusion is that the soil was too well drained and maybe not sufficiently rich in organic matter. Nearby ornamental natives are thriving.

Lovely picture Fred. Is there a secret to getting more fruits from my mango trees?

I am no green thumb - prune the trees after fruiting [for manageable size] - are under irrigation three times a week - but after the lorikeets and the fruit bats, we do seem to get a few mangos
