- When you grow 80 varieties of mangos, it's hard to pick favorites!
It was very difficult, but Chris came up with her list of favorite varieties for 2017. It's hard to believe that she got her list down to only 20!
Watch the video to see what they are!
You have the best mangoes in the world. Everybody should visit your farm!
Thanks!
I'd say: Edward, Lemon Zest, Sweet Tart (when they're "on"), Maha Chanook and Pickering. Too much variability in the Mallika (cut down our tree for that reason). Bailey's Marvel has a hint of an aspartame-ish flavor which I find offputting (Beverly sometimes has a hint of this too). Great collection she has.
Hello Chris, 1 Angie 2 Pim san mum 3 Pickering 4 Florigon 5 Carrie 6 Keitt 7 springfel 8 Pina colada
just at home watching truly tropical. love this video and was just watching it with my 6yr old son.. He cant wait to come back to truly tropical
Pickering. Great video.
Coconut cream, Gary, Dwarf Hawaiian, Ice Cream (which I think you don't have anymore) and Bailey's Marble. Oh and I love Dot, too!
All great varieties!
2017 was actually a great year for 'Ice Cream' ....it was so popular that I'm grafting it on other trees....
Ice cream mango is very fragrant.
The ancient Nicocado comment!
I have a Beverly and a Nam Doc Mai. I have a small yard so went with smaller trees that were Anthrois resistant. Nam Doc Mai is one of the best mangoes I have ever eaten. It is very sweet with just the right amount of fiber.
I so much enjoy coming to your farm and will be back next year
Yay!
My favorite mango so far is the Kesar from india. Intoxicating floral taste especially toward the skin. So amazing.
'Kesar' is an awesome mango! We are looking forward to having more of it available this mango season.
Hello Chris!
I`m planning to plant some mangos that harvest fruit at different months, so I get fruit the longest.
Those mangos whose late fruits are much better than early ones (Keitt, etc), would you advise to cut their first flowers off and let them produce only those later fruits?
Excelent videos. I was about to cut down a mango I've had in my backyard for eight years and has not produce, but your videos have motivated me to try grafting. I also love mangoes. We have a Wide variety in Panamá 🇵🇦 especially in the area of Los Santos.
This video, like all your others, is most informative. I am in Jamaica and would love to get my hands on some of the mango varieties that you have. Do you sell plants and if so, how can that be arranged?
Winston
First of all, thanks for watching our videos!
We do sell mango trees at our farm, but we don't ship them.
Chris, I want to plant a tree in a smaller yard. I have been thinking either Carrie or maha chanook tree. What is the difference in maintenance of these two trees? Also what would you say the taste difference is for these two.? Thank you
This is what I learn from various videos..
Carrie: very soft texture and sweet, fruity. Some say has a tartness, likely picked early. disease resistant.
Maha Chanook has a range of flavors depending when it is picked and the part of the mango. I'd go with this for the varied taste.
Hi Chris, im in Australia in a similar climate to you. I have a mango tree that has a single trunk that bolted high and started to branch way up, should I cut it way back which would mean no leaves.
thanks from land of mango, india. happy to see the varieties in my garden too...keep it up madam..
We would love to learn more about Indian mangos... If you have a chance, could you tell us about the most popular varieties in your area of India?

Hi Chris My favsPin saen Mun ( My # 1 )Pram Kai mae / Lemon merengue ( Tied for # 2)ZINC (#2a) Ha , haBEST - Big , sweet, meaty slightly spicy mangoMekong - SE Asian mango , I was impressed by this fruit it stayed firm and sweet on my counter for at least a week where most other mangoes start to shrivel etc. Medium sized mango , fiberless .Got@Alex at Tropical Acres years ago. And made notesPlease inquire on this one Chris ...maybe grow it????FairchildSweet TartSia Sian ( Got to taste a ton of these at The Fruit n Spice Park)Cac mangoLemon ZestMadam Frances ( I Know lots of Fiber , but it has a taste I like)I do agree with you Chis ... to me there is NO BEST MANGOES .....too many wonderful flavors that are even in some years slightly different nuance to the taste from the same cultivar each year for ex: THE Keitt's I had from Mexico this year was absolutely the best I have ever tasted!!!Love your videos, keep it up!!!
Lots of nice choices!
Madame Francis from Haiti. Has some fiber, but the most amazing tropical flavor.
Nice mango.... so many mangos, so little space...
I went mango tasting at the Fairchild Tropical Gardens a few years ago. My favorites were Kent and Nam Doc Mai. Kent was so sweet and juicy. Nam Doc Mai was complex and delightful.
It's tough for me to pick favorites because there are so many great varieties!
Yes, there are! I often wish that I could live in a warm and sunny place like Florida and have dozens of mango trees in my backyard!
Mangos are the best part of Florida summers!
Definitely!
I love all mangoes as long as it is spelled mango and it tastes good I'll eat but my favorite is Julie there's a lot i have not taste i live in Tennessee and I don't get any good mangoes i would like to order some of your mangoes different varieties and I love watching your videos
Sweet Tart
The Mallika mangoes I purchased from you in late June, I think were the best mangoes I sampled this year. i think i will get a Lemon meringue ( PPK ) next spring, to replace my Valencia Pride, ( Lost it in Irma ) since its a great early variety that is supposedly consistent, both productive wise, and in flavor. do you agree?
yes... We have had a few shy years with PPK, but I think the weather after fruit set was exceptionally dry.
Great list. However, I'm surprised Nam doc mai and Alphonso didn't make your list. They're my two favourite along with malgova:)
Is air layering possible in mango trees?
It is, but we don't do it because tap roots are important in our area.
Truly Tropical , will it grow fibrous root if we grow from air layering? (Thanks for reply) your work is amazing
Hi Chris I would like to visit your farm
Do you allow Publix to tour your farm
Oops public
haha
We offer tours, especially during mango season.
hahahaha i think she likes all of them!!!!
do you have trees for sale?
Yes... our main business is selling fruit, but we sell some trees so people can grow their favorite fruits
Can I use immature panicles for graftwood
Panicles do not make good graftwood. Check out our video on how to prepare mango graftwood...
Cac is wonderful mango
Honey mango, keitt, kent
This is ridiculous! I coming to visit soon!!
Can you please make video of your favourite indian mangoes?
thanks for the suggestion... we will try to get a few people together for that
Love coconut flavored mangoes.
Yes... an entirely different flavor!
I don't know why people are so averse to fiber. Fiber gives the mangos texture. I'd be more concern with flavor and production.
They get stuck in your teeth and sometimes it's hard to bite off the flesh, when the fibres holding it. Or the fibre continues to hold flesh and you have to scrape it off with a spoon. It's minorly stressful and sometimes time consuming. Bit distracting if you don't have toothpick.
I agree. One of the most fragrant and flavorful mangos is the East Indian. The essence is so intoxicating, even those leaves are fragrant. The flavorful is delightful, juicy and complex. You know when East Indian mangos are in the house when you open the door!
Fibre mango is top choice for juice
@@avijitgoswami3082 I prefer fibrous mangoes. It's fun to eat and reminds me of my childhood.
Best mangos for 2019?
