Did you grow it from seed? Ive had many getting off to a wonderful start in my worm farm but thought that they wouldnt do here in Warragul. ive got one thats come up with the compost from the worm farm in my large mint pot. think I'll just keep it all well fed and see what happens .

Yes, it is grown from seed. I think they should also survive in Warragul. Cheers!

thanks Linton, Ive certainly got nothing to lose by trying.

Mango - Bowen (Seedling) ^10/10

Comments: -

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.

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.

Susceptible to anthracnose

Like hot dry spring, summer. Night temp of 14c for flowers to set fruits. Cut all flowers off, if you want your tree to flower later. It takes 100-150d from flowers to harvest depending on mango cv

Like full sun (up to 45c), sandy loam soil, med-low wind resistant

Mango - Bowen Seedling (Seedling) ^9/10

Comments: - Trying to grow one here in Melbourne. Received an 18 month old seedling in a 70mm grow-tube during the winter this year and has been repotted into a 300mm pot.  I took it indoors at night  as it was quite cold. Its begining to push some new gowth as the weather warms up.  Will update regularly.

Any fruit from this yet?

Mango - Bowen Seedling (Seedling) ^10/10

Comments: -

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?
