In Florida, mangos are grown commercially in Dade, Lee, and Palm Beach Counties and as door yard trees in warm locations along the southeastern and southwestern coastal areas and along the southern shore of Lake Okeechobee. 1 The History of Mangos in South Florida, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden Description Mangifera indica is thought to have been in cultivation for so long that its natural distribution has been obscured. Grown in the open, it forms a very dense, round crown of large, leathery, lance-shaped, drooping leaves aver a stout trunk. In late winter and early spring, a flush of new, bright red leaves are borne, followed by tiny, yellow-green to pink fragrant flowers held in erect, red stemmed, showy panicles. The legendary, aromatic, heavy fruit is truly a masterpiece. Almost heart-shaped, dangling on its long, stout stalk, the luminous, ripe fruit is mostly blushed pink, red or purple, with a delicate, iridescent, powdery bloom. 10
Fig. 5. 'Ice Cream' Fig. 6. 'Pickering' Fig. 7. 'Vallenato' fig. 8. 'Mallika' Fig. 9. 'Nan Doc Mai' Fig. 10. 'Julie' Roots The mango has a long taproot that often branches just below ground level, forming between two and four major anchoring taproots tan can reach 6 m (20 ft) down to the water table. The more fibrous finer roots (feeder roots) are found from the surface down to approximately 1 m (3.3 ft) and usually extend just beyound the canoty diameter. Distribution of the finer roots changes seasonall with the moinsture distribution in the soil. 6 Leaves Nearly evergreen, alternate leaves are borne mainly in rosettes at the tips of the branches and numerous twigs from which they droop like ribbons on slender petioles 1 to 4 in (2.5-10 cm) long. The new leaves, appearing periodically and irregularly on a few branches at a time, are yellowish, pink, deep-rose or wine-red, becoming dark-green and glossy above, lighter beneath. The midrib is pale and conspicuous and the many horizontal veins distinct. Full-grown leaves may be 4 to 12.5 in (10-32 cm) long and 3/4 to 2 1/8 in (2-5.4 cm) wide. 3 Leaves may live up to five years. 1 Flowers Hundreds and even as many as 3,000 to 4,000 small, yellowish or reddish flowers, 25 to 98 % male, the rest hermaphroditic, are borne in profuse, showy, erect, pyramidal, branched clusters 2 1/2 to 15 1/2 in (6-40 cm) high. 3 Inflorescense Sequence
Fruit There is great variation in the form, size, color and quality of the fruits. They may be nearly round, oval, ovoid-oblong, or somewhat kidney-shaped, often with a break at the apex, and are usually more or less lop-sided. They range from 2 1/2 to 10 in (6.25-25 cm) in length and from a few ounces to 4 to 5 lbs (1.8-2.26 kg). The skin is leathery, waxy, smooth, fairly thick, aromatic and ranges from light-or dark-green to clear yellow, yellow-orange, yellow and reddish-pink, or more or less blushed with bright-or dark-red or purple-red, with fine yellow, greenish or reddish dots, and thin or thick whitish, gray or purplish bloom, when fully ripe. Some have a "turpentine" odor and flavor, while others are richly and pleasantly fragrant. The flesh ranges from pale-yellow to deep-orange. It is essentially peach-like but much more fibrous, extremely juicy, with a flavor range from very sweet to subacid to tart. 3
Fig. 26. Seed inside a woody husk Fig. 27. Parts of a mango (Mangifera indica) fruit Seed Types Mango varieties produce either monoembryonic or polyembryonic seeds. Polyembryonic seeds contain more than one embryo and most of the embryos are genetically identical to the mother tree. Monoembryonic seeds contain one embryo and this embryo possesses genes from both parents. A tree planted from a polyembryonic seed will be identical to its parent tree, whereas a tree planted from a monoembryonic seed will be a hybrid (mix of both parents). 1 Florida monoembryonic cultivars: 'Tommy Atkins', 'Keitt', 'Kent', 'Van Dyke', 'Palmer', 'Irvin' and 'Glenn'. 8 Florida polyembryonic cultivars: 'Florigon', 'Saigon', Nom Doc Mai' and 'Okrung'. 8 Varieties Indian Types typically have monoembryonic seeds and often highly colored fruit. The fruit tend to be more susceptible to anthracnose and internal breakdown. Most commercial Florida varieties are of this type.1 Indochinese Types typically have polyembryonic seeds and fruit often lack attractive coloration (i.e., they are green, light green, or yellow). The fruit tend to be relatively resistant to anthracnose. Florida varieties of this group are not commercially important, although some are appreciated in home plantings. 1 In many areas of the tropics, there are seedling mangos which do not clearly fit in either of these types. Some of these are ‘Turpentine’, ‘Number 11’, ‘Madame Francis’, and ‘Kensington’. There are many mango varieties available in south Florida and many are appropriate for small and large home landscapes. Some characteristics of the most important Florida varieties are summarized in Table 1. 1 Mango Varieties Mango Varieties Recommended for Florida, University of Florida The Mangos of Fairchild Evolution, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden Green Thai Mangos, Archives of the Rare Fruit Council of Australia Many Choices Now for Your Back Yard Mango Tree, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden Uncommon Mangos, Edible South Florida Taming the wild mango, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden Harvesting Mango fruits will ripen on the tree, but, are usually picked when firm and mature (Table 1). Table 1 may be used as a guide to when picking your fruit may begin. However, slight year-to-year variations occur in when maturity begins. The crop is considered mature when the shoulders and the nose (the end of the fruit away from the stem) of the fruit broaden (fill out). Varieties that have color when ripe may have a slight blush of color development, or they may have begun to change color from green to yellow. Prior to this peel color break, the fruit is considered mature when the flesh near the seed changes color from white to yellow. 1 The fruit from mango trees do not all have to be harvested at the same time. This feature allows you to leave the fruit on the tree and pick fruit only when you want to eat it. Remember, it takes several days or more (depending upon how mature the fruit is) for the fruit to ripen once it is picked. As the season of harvest for any given variety passes, the fruit continue to mature (and later ripen) and there is an increased chance the fruit will begin to fall from the tree. 1 The period of development from flowering to fruit maturity is 100 to 150 days. 1 Harvest Calendar Pollination In Florida, mangos bloom from December to April depending upon climatic conditions and variety. 1 Mango flowers are visited by fruit bats, flies, wasps, wild bees, butterflies, moths, beetles, ants and various bugs seeking the nectar and some transfer the pollen but a certain amount of self-pollination also occurs. Honeybees do not especially favor mango flowers. 3 Propagation Mango trees may be propagated by seed and vegetatively. Vegetative propagation is necessary for monoembryonic seed types, whereas varieties with polyembryonic seeds come true from seed. 1 There is a single, longitudinally ribbed, pale yellowish-white, somewhat woody stone, flattened, oval or kidney-shaped, sometimes rather elongated. Within the stone is the starchy seed, monoembryonic - usually single-sprouting or polyembryonic - usually producing more than one seedling. 3 Veneer-grafting and chip-budding are the most common and successful methods in Florida. Grafted trees will begin to bear 3 to 5 years after planting. Most mango varieties are grafted onto polyembryonic rootstocks. Common polyembryonic rootstocks include ‘Turpentine’ and unnamed criollo-types. These rootstocks are tolerant of high pH soils and seedlings are vigorous and relatively uniform. 1 Mangoes - Polyembryonic, Sub-Tropical Fruit Club of Qld Mango Propagation, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden Graft-induced Off-season Flowering and Fruiting in the Mango, Archives of the Rare Fruit Council of Australia The inverted root graft: applications for the home garden in Florida, Fla. State Hort. Soc. pdf Top Working of Mango Trees, Archives of the Rare Fruit Council of Australia Grafting Mangos, Archives of the Rare Fruit Council of Australia Pruning Formative pruning of young trees may be advantageous because it by increases the number of lateral branches and establishes a strong framework for subsequent fruit production. After several years of production, it is desirable to cut back the tops of trees allowed to grow to 12 to 15 feet (3.7-4.6 m). 1 Training and Pruning a Mango Orchard to Improve Blooming, Architecture and Yield in South Florida, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden pdf Pruning Mango Trees: Two Main Precautions Before you Begin, University of Florida, Lee County pdf Response to Severe Pruning, University of Florida, Lee County pdf Fertilizing In Florida, young trees should receive fertilizer applications every month during the first year, beginning with 1/4 lb (114 g) and gradually increasing to one pound (455 g). Thereafter, 3 to 4 applications per year in amounts proportionate to the increasing size of the tree are sufficient. For bearing trees, nitrogen should be drastically reduced or eliminated, and potash should be increased to 9 to 15%, and available phosphoric acid reduced to 2 to 4%. Examples of commonly available fertilizer mixes include 6-6-6-2 [6 (N)-6 (P2O5)-6 (K2O)-2 (Mg)], 6-3-16 and 0-0-22. Little to no nitrogen is needed for mature healthy trees; in contrast emphasize potash and minor element nutrition. 1 Mango: Calcium – a key for good Mango yield and quality, Sub-tropical Fruit Club of Qld Nutrient Deficiencies Leaf tip burn may be a sign of excess chlorides. Manganese deficiency is indicated by paleness and limpness of foliage followed by yellowing, with distinct green veins and midrib, fine brown spots and browning of leaf tips. Inadequate zinc is evident in less noticeable paleness of foliage, distortion of new shoots, small leaves, necrosis, and stunting of the tree and its roots. In boron deficiency, there is reduced size and distortion of new leaves and browning of the midrib. Copper deficiency is seen in paleness of foliage and severe tip-bum with gray-brown patches on old leaves; abnormally large leaves; also die-back of terminal shoots; sometimes gummosis of twigs and branches. Magnesium is needed when young trees are stunted and pale, new leaves have yellow-white areas between the main veins and prominent yellow specks on both sides of the midrib. There may also be browning of the leaf tips and margins. Lack of iron produces chlorosis in young trees. 3 Irrigation Newly planted mango trees should be watered at planting and every other day for the first week or so, and then 1 to 2 times a week for the first couple of months. During prolonged dry periods (e.g., 5 or more days of little to no rainfall) newly planted and young mango trees (first 3 years) should be watered once a week. Once the rainy season arrives, irrigation frequency may be reduced or stopped. 1 Once mango trees are 4 or more years old, irrigation will be beneficial to plant growth and crop yields only during very prolonged dry periods during spring and summer. 1 Common Questions Concerning Young Mango Trees, University of Florida, Miami-Dade Extension pdf Pests Many insect pests attack mangos, but they seldom limit fruit production significantly. Insect infestations are not predictable and control measures are justified only when large infestations occur. Homeowners should contact their local UF/IFAS Extension office for recommended control measures. 1 Mango Pests and Beneficial Insects, University of Florida pdf Disease/Disorders Page The two major disease problems for mango trees in the home landscape are powdery mildew and anthracnose. Both these fungal pathogens attack newly emerging panicles, flowers, and young fruit. One to two early spring applications of sulfur and copper timed to begin when the panicle is 1/4 full size and then 10 to 21 days later will greatly improve the chances for fruit set and production. 1 Fruit Protection

Mature green mangos are also eaten fresh or as pickles. Fresh mangos are processed and preserved into a wide range of products including pulps, juices, frozen slices, dried slices, pulp (fruit leather), chutneys, jams, pickles, canned in syrup, and sliced in brine. 6 Mango purees and essences are used to flavor many food products such as drinks, ice creams, wines, teas, breakfast cereals, muesli bars, and biscuits. 6 Recipes, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden Virtual Herbarium Preserving Mangos: Freezing and Drying, Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden How to Eat Mangos Mango Fork, Archives of the Rare Fruit Council of Australia South Florida Tropicals: Mango, University of Florida pdf (archived)

The bark contains mangiferine and is astringent and employed against rheumatism and diphtheria in India. The resinous gum from the trunk is applied on cracks in the skin of the feet and on scabies, and is believed helpful in cases of syphilis. 3 Mango kernel decoction and powder (not tannin-free) are used as vermifuges and as astringents in diarrhea, hemorrhages and bleeding hemorrhoids. The fat is administered in cases of stomatitis. Extracts of unripe fruits and of bark, stems and leaves have shown antibiotic activity. In some of the islands of the Caribbean, the leaf decoction is taken as a remedy for diarrhea, fever, chest complaints, diabetes, hypertension and other ills. A combined decoction of mango and other leaves is taken after childbirth. 3 Other Uses The bark possesses 16% to 20% tannin and has been employed for tanning hides. It yields a yellow dye, or, with turmeric and lime, a bright rose-pink. 3 A somewhat resinous, red-brown gum from the trunk is used for mending crockery in tropical Africa. In India, it is sold as a substitute for gum arabic. 3 Having high stearic acid content, the fat is desirable for soap-making. The seed residue after fat extraction is usable for cattle feed and soil enrichment. 3 An important honey plant. 10 Toxicity The sap which exudes from the stalk close to the base of the fruit is somewhat milky at first, also yellowish-resinous. It becomes pale-yellow and translucent when dried. It contains mangiferen, resinous acid, mangiferic acid, and the resinol, mangiferol. It, like the sap of the trunk and branches and the skin of the unripe fruit, is a potent skin irritant, and capable of blistering the skin of the normal individual. As with poison ivy, there is typically a delayed reaction. Hypersensitive persons may react with considerable swelling of the eyelids, the face, and other parts of the body. 3 When mango trees are in bloom, it is not uncommon for people to suffer itching around the eyes, facial swelling and respiratory difficulty, even though there is no airborne pollen. The few pollen grains are large and they tend to adhere to each other even in dry weather. The stigma is small and not designed to catch windborne pollen. The irritant is probably the vaporized essential oil of the flowers which contains the sesquiterpene alcohol, mangiferol, and the ketone, mangiferone. 3 Mango wood should never be used in fireplaces or for cooking fuel, as its smoke is highly irritant. 3 Condo Mangos - The term “condo mango” was coined by Dr. Richard Campbell, Ph.D. the curator of tropical fruit a Fairchild Tropical Botanical Garden in Coral Gables, Florida. It refers to varieties that are conducive to container growing, thus are small by nature and can be kept even smaller through selective pruning. Condo mangos are suitable for balconies, greenhouses, or for planting in suburban backyards. By cutting the tips of the branches once or twice a year the trees can easily be maintained at six to ten feet according to variety. Training the tree to stay small is very easy, and the fruits of your labor are sure to impress. 7 General M. indica has been recorded and cultivated in India for over 4,000 years and is revered by Buddhists and Hindus,who use its leaves as decoration at weddings in the hope that the couple will give birth to a son. 10
