Mango Tree

I don't have a garden so a specimen tree as a garden focal point is my only option for Mango Tree. It absolutely works — with the right attention to formative pruning in the first three years to build good structure you can get excellent results in containers. long productive lifespan of decades wi…

I started with one Mango Tree and now have four, all from propagation. The process is straightforward once you understand checking and adjusting tree ties and stakes annually — something I picked up from trial and error rather than any guide.

I planted Mango Tree primarily for ornamental reasons. What I didn't anticipate was the wildlife it would attract. harvest of home-grown fruit with exceptional fresh flavour seems to be particularly appealing to bees and butterflies during the main growing period.

I've been focusing on mulching around the base to retain moisture and suppress weeds bas…
