HARVESTING Four DELICIOUS Spirit of '76 Mangoes From Our 3.5 Year Old Tree in Phoenix, AZ!

Описание: We are nearing the end of Mango season here in Phoenix (it typically runs from beginning of August to the end of September). We have had a fantastic season this year, ultimately harvesting the most mangoes we ever! We had a total of 9 mangoes harvested off of four of our five mango trees. Each one was more delicious then the next and each one had it's own unique taste.

Mango trees do very well here in the Phoenix area and I maintain they are one of the easiest tropical trees to grow here besides citrus and guavas. Once established (after year 2-3 in ground) they can take our cold during the winter and they handle our sun until 2-3pm. Typically grafted mangoes act similar to dwarf varieties here in Phoenix, growing only 10 to 15 feet tall. This is mainly due to our climate with the intense heat in the summers and our colder winters. My trees received water every week this year (during the summer) and this seemed to help them hold on to their fruit. These trees were planted in spring of 2021 and have always been under thick mulch, received quarterly agricultural sulfur applications and monthly fish emulsion.

Our Spirit of '76 Mangoes were absolutely delicious! They were quite juicy and had very little fiber. Our Spirit of '76 Mangoes taste pretty similar to a store bough mango with a little more of a nectar taste. They do taste different than our Carrie and Fruit Punch Mango (   • HARVESTING our First Fruit Punch Mango in ...  ) and more similar to our Super Alphonso Mango (   • An Absolutely DELICIOUS Super Alphonso Man...  ). At the end of the day though a mango is a mango and home grown mangoes are the best! If you have any questions please comment below.
