My Edible Fruit Trees: Mango Trees QLD

Mangosteen Purple (Seedling) ^9/10

Comments: -

Five year old seedlings(2 years inground). Protected in winter with green house cover. Purple mangosteens apparently don't like being too close to the sea! I'm 300 meters away and both seem to be responding well and growing just as fast as the achachas. The spot has almost 360 protection from wind. House on one side, shed on the other, fence behind and a raised garden bed infront with shade cloth. Soil is high organic mix, with 20% clay and 10% sand. Only using Rainwater which I apply once weekly durign heatwaves and high avg temps

Lemon Drop Mangosteen (Seedling)

Comments: -

Plant arrived in May 2020 in great condition with soil still damp. Will plant this into a pot after 1-2 weeks outside and provide updates. 

We will see how it copes with winter in Toowoomba - may have to bring it inside on cool nights.

Spring 2020: After being brought in every night during winter, now growing well.

September 2021: Both died over winter in Toowoomba (left outside). Interestingly, the Achachas survived.

Mango - R2E2 (Grafted) ^8/10

Comments: -

Update 09-Dec-2011: Got around 2-3 tiny fruits which dropped before they matured. Just one fruit remaining which is as big as a closed fist at the moment. New pic attached.

I love mangoes, my favourite being the Alphonse variety. But unfortunately we do not get it here in Australia. Daleys is seeking propogation material for the last 2 years :( The variety closest to alphonse i believe is the bowen variety. But I have planted the R2E2 variety which produce a larger fruit and is equally sweet.

This tree was in my apartment balcony in a pot for about a year before i planted it into the ground last year. And about a month later it flowered and produced 3 lovely fruits :)  

This year it has already started flowering profusely (pic). I might have to prematurely remove the fruits in december coz i dont think this little tree will be able to bear the weght of the fruits if it holds on to 3 or more.

Mango - Bowen Seedling (Seedling) ^5/10

Comments: -

This tree is much too big for my garden, and needs constant cutting back.  May try to lop it or top work other varieties. Received it as a gift, rescued pot bound from a local nursery.  Have grafted two Nam Doc Mai to one limb with success. Only fruit every two or three years due to climate, will remove it.

Mango - Glenn (Grafted) ^6/10

Comments: - The first year I got this plant instead of taking off the flowers I let it fruit and although a possum took one there was still one left for me. The texture was by far the best I have ever had. It was almost like butter it was that amazing.

It could have been a really bad season (2008) though for mangos because I notice a lot of other trees that fruited in previous years did

Question:

What brands of fungus spray would be good for this?

Maybe leave One on the tree....aye? Could have to be careful....looks pretty small. I have to take my lemons off (about 10 mths).

Mango - Keitt (Grafted)

Comments: - Who doesn't like Mangos? I have a huge old Common tree in my yard, I am in the process of Topworking it with Brooks, Keitt, KP, R2E2 and NamDocMai, that's where the Frankenmango name comes from. Plan is to have Mangos early thru late on the same large tree; with the odd off season fruit that the remnant Common branches tend to produce up here I should have mangos 6 or 8 months of the year!
