When Potted Mango Trees Flower...

Growing my 1st mango…potted. Didn’t know I should cut off the flowers…makes sense, thanks!

Aaah that little flowering potted mango could make the most perfect bonsai .

I like the ppl with gardening hobby.they feel like big brother sister so much kindness they have

Excellent video Chris, my potted Carrie variety has the most production this year but I'm still awaiting to see what my Coconut Cream and Ataulfo will do once they are a bit more mature! This latest video about covers all the mango 🥭 scenarios for the year, thanks!

This was one of the more helpful videos on mango I have found. There are a lot of people who say don’t let your mango tree flower for at least 2-3 years and while that might make for a good generic answer it doesn’t tell the whole story. Then I watch Dr. Richard Campbell talk about getting your mango in a productive mode rather excessive vigor mode and he has some fairly small trees he lets fruit. So then I’m uncertain what to do? At a previous property I did all I could to get my mango (Manila) to grow tall which included removing fruit for the first 2-3 years. And within 5 years or so it was at least 15feet tall. It produced some relatively small fruit before I moved. As much as any healthy mango tree is good, I would prefer to have a smaller tree that produces heavy crops than a massive tree. So now I have 3 new trees that I planted over the past 3 years. The most recent ‘Fruit Punch’ I planted this past spring. The fruit punch is currently about chest high and is throwing out new panicles this week on every terminal branch. I think I will let the panicles develop another week or two and then cut them as you demonstrated. I am uncertain yet whether I will let any fruit develop but if I do it will only be one or two. Again, thanks for going into depth of flower management on each size tree.

Your delightful Chris , I enjoyed the video !

I love how u dedicate to mangoes specialy..spectacular.

Wonderful information. Thank you. I should have cut my flowers off last year but I didn't know. None of the fruit grew.

Aww how beautiful those trees are! 😍

Nice mango collection.thank you do much for sharing. Greetings from Belgium

I enjoy watching your videos for my knowledge!

Thank you for making this video! I have two 15 gallon mango trees in pots and not yet flowering… I guess it’s normal for now. 🙂

Lovely to see the mango flowers..thanks for the tips :)

Causing palpitations and triggering a road trip!! O o my need to see a sea of blooming trees. I’ll say it’s for motivation to fight the cold but I I come you know at least 5 or 10 coming home. U haul. Great tips on managing blooms of smaller trees.

Pls share the fertilizer details u r doing for the potted mangos.

love those trees, nature is so beautiful thank you

We love your videos, very informative. I have a question for Chris or anyone that knows, we purchased a potted Keitt mango tree that was about 3 feet tall and it was left unattended in the pot for about 8 months and it grew real tall (approx. 7 feet), no low branches, a long trunk and only branches on the very top; because we have a small area assigned for this tree we wouldn’t want a tall large tree, how can I prune it to get lower branches and keep it small? Can I do a drastic cut of the trunk at 3 feet? Thank you in advance.

I had them last year. I did not let them develop into fruits., they just shriveled and grew faster. I figured the root system was not yet developed to supply the needs of new fruit, this year I will get a few..

Thank you for sharing this information!

What an awesome nursery !
