PLEASE NOTE THAT I PREFER NOT TO SHIP TO HAWAII, PUERTO RICO OR INTERNATIONALLY DUE TO THE RISK OF THE PLANT NOT SURVIVING THE JOURNEY. IF YOU WISH TO COVER THE COST OF EXPEDITED SHIPPING YOU CAN MESSAGE ME PRIOR TO BIDDING OR MAKING THE PURCHASE SO THAT WE CAN DISCUSS EXPEDITED SHIPPING OPTIONS BUT I CAN NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR LOSSES DUE TO USPS OR OTHER SHIPPING CARRIER SERVICES THAT DO NOT DELIVER ON TIME RESULTING IN THE DEATH OF YOUR SEEDLING(S) I make every effort to ship plants as soon as payment is received. I do not provide hot packs so be mindful of cold temperatures in your area. This evergreen perennial tolerates mild temperatures when it is young preferably no lower than 50 F. For this reason you may need to be present when the post man delivers your package or have someone collect it from your mail box and bring it indoors to warmer temperatures before it gets damaged. Older mango mature trees can handle lower temps to 25 F but these are very young immature plants and do not have that kind of vigor. I ship all of my plants via USPS FIRST CLASS 2 to 3 day delivery or FED EX with tracking that is available upon request but unfortunately, sometimes the postal service/carriers does not deliver on time and packages do sometimes get lost. Please understand, this is something that is out of my control. If your plant arrives damaged beyond saving, please message me immediately with pictures of both your package and plant still secured to the box it arrived in so that I may correct the problem as soon as possible. There is no need to leave negative feedback as I always try to answer questions or concerns on a very timely basis, sometimes within minutes of being messaged. Your satisfaction is my greatest concern and I will do everything possible to make things right. GOOD LUCK AND HAPPY GARDENING 🙂 THE ICE CREAM MANGO WAS ORIGINALLY DISCOVERED IN TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO. THE CULTIVAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE US AND INTRODUCED TO FLORIDA BY MAURICE KONG OF THE RARE FRUIT COUNCIL. THE EXACT PARENTAGE OF ICE CREAM MANGO REMAINS UNKNOWN. ACCORDING TO DR. RICHARD CAMPBELL PHD. (A GUIDE TO MANGOS IN FLORIDA) THE ICE CREAM MANGO IS CONSIDERED TO BE A CONDO MANGO DUE TO ITS SEMI-DWARF GROWTH HABIT. THIS CULTIVAR IS ONE OF THE UNIQUE MANGO VARIETIES THAT CAN BE CONTAINER GROWN AND EASILY MAINTAINED TO RESTRICT ITS GROWTH TO UNDER 8 FT TALL. THIS MAKES THE CULTIVAR AN EXCELLENT CHOICE FOR THOSE WHO HAVE LIMITED YARD SPACE. PERFECT FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IN CONDO’S OR APARTMENTS WITH ONLY A BALCONY. OF COURSE, MOST MANGO TREES WILL ALMOST ALWAYS BE MORE PRODUCTIVE IF GROWN IN-GROUND. ICE CREAM MANGO HAVE AN OVAL BUT SOMEWHAT FLAT SHAPE, SOMETIMES WITH A BUMPY SURFACE. FRUIT ARE USUALLY ON THE SMALL SIDE WITH AN AVERAGE WEIGHT OF ABOUT A HALF POUND. THE SKIN IS TYPICALLY YELLOW TO GREEN WHEN RIPE WITH NO VISIBLE SIGNS OF RED BLUSH. THE FLESH IS SMOOTH, FIBERLESS, RICH WITH A SPICY FLAVOR THAT IS VERY SWEET AND REMINISCENT OF A MANGO SORBET. THE JUICY SWEET YELLOW FLESH CONTAINS A MONO-EMBRYONIC SEED. FRUIT BECOMES READY FOR HARVESTING BETWEEN JUNE AND JULY HERE IN FLORIDA. THE TREE IS DISEASE AND PEST-TOLERANT AND ALTHOUGH IT ONLY PRODUCES AN AVERAGE HARVEST, YOUR YIELD CAN BE IMPROVED WITH CROSS POLLINATION IF YOU HAVE OTHER TREES IN YOUR YARD. MY ICE CREAM MANGO GROWS CLOSE TOGETHER WITH MY PINA COLADA AND MY SWEET TART MANGO TREES TO ENSURE AN ABUNDANCE OF CROSS POLLINATION. THIS CULTIVAR IS UNDOUBTEDLY ONE OF THE TOP TIER MANGO VARIETIES IN MY HUMBLE OPINION. WORTH HAVING IN YOUR COLLECTION IF YOU ARE AN AFFECIONADO OF THE FINER TASTING MANGOS THAT HAVE A VERY UNIQUE FLAVOR. INSTRUCTIONS: PRIOR TO TRANSPLANTING YOUR SEEDLING, PLACE THE NURSERY POT IN A CONTAINER WITH ABOUT 2 INCHES OF WATER FOR ABOUT 2 HOUR SO THAT YOU CAN SATURATE THE SOIL WITH MOISTURE WHICH HELPS IT TO HOLD THE ROOTS SECURE. THIS PREVENTS THE ROOT BALL FROM FALLING APART DURING TRANSPLANTATION. WHEN YOU ARE READY TO TRANSPLANT YOUR MANGO TREE TO A LARGER PLASTIC NURSERY CONTAINER (OR TO YOUR GARDEN LOCATION OF CHOICE) DO SO BY CAREFULLY REMOVING YOUR PLANT FROM THE 1 GALLON NURSERY POT WITHOUT DISTURBING THE ROOT BALL. THIS CAN BE DONE BY GENTLY CUTTING AWAY THE PERIMETER OF THE BASE OF THE PLASTIC POT, THEN BOTH SIDES SO THAT THE ROOT BALL CAN BE CAREFULLY SLID AWAY FROM THE POT AND GENTLY PLACED INTO YOUR PREPARED HOLE. FAILURE TO KEEP YOUR MANGO TREE’S ROOT BALL INTACT MIGHT RISK SHOCKING OR KILLING YOUR YOUNG SEEDLING. FOR BEST RESULTS TRANSPLANT AND GROW YOUR SEEDLING IN A 3 TO 5 GALLON PLASTIC NURSERY CONTAINER UNTIL YOUR TREE IS AT LEAST 4 TO 5 OR MORE FT TALL BEFORE TRANSPLANTING TO YOUR GARDEN LOCATION OF CHOICE. IF YOU PREFER TO TRANSPLANT TO A LARGER PLASTIC NURSERY CONTAINER, USE ANY GOOD QUALITY WELL DRAINING POTTING SOIL TO PROMOTE GROWTH. BE CAREFUL. IF YOUR SUNLIGHT IS INTENSE THEN GROW YOUR TREE (IN YOUR NURSERY POT) IN PART SHADE. IF YOU NOTICE THAT YOUNG LEAVES ARE BURNING IT MEANS THAT YOUR SUNLIGHT MIGHT BE TOO INTENSE. THE APPEARANCE OF YELLOW TO BROWN BURN MARKS ON YOUNGER LEAVES WILL INDICATE THAT YOUR SUNLIGHT MIGHT BE TOO INTENSE. IF SO, RELOCATE YOUR POTTED TREE TO AN AREA WHERE YOU CAN CONTROL SUN EXPOSURE AND MONITOR IT’S PROGRESS. ONCE YOUR TREE IS ABOUT 4-5 FT TALL YOU CAN THEN TRANSPLANT IT INTO YOUR GARDEN LOCATION OF CHOICE, PREFERABLY SOMEWHERE THAT YOUR TREE WILL GET FULL SUN FOR AT LEAST 6 TO 8 HRS PER DAY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT CARING FOR YOUR TREE PLEASE MESSAGE ME AND I WILL GLADLY PROVIDE HELP. PLANTING: The best time to plant a mango tree is during the start of the rainy season depending on your locale. Typically, in Florida that would be during May or June. If you do not have a rainy season then providing good irrigation will suffice. If you plan on planting your tree directly in the ground then you will need to plant your tree at the same depth as the container the tree arrived in. Fortunately, because mangoes are not fussy, there is no need to add manure or any other amendments to the soil. The only amendment you need is the addition of a 4 inch layer of mulch around the base of the tree on the surface of the soil. Pine bark, Eucalyptus or any other natural, good quality, non-chemically treated mulch will do the job of retaining water/moisture in the root system as well as preventing invasive weeds that might reduce the available nutrients in the soil. Do not allow your mulch to contact the trunk of your mango tree which can result in fungal growth that might damage your plant. Keep mulch at least 3 to 5 inches away from the trunk of your plant. WATERING: Rainfall of at least 1 inch per week is considered adequate. If this is not available then you should water your tree weekly for at least the first 3 months depending on your weather/rain conditions in your area. In dry conditions a sprinkler or other irrigation system saves you work and is your mango tree’s best friend. How often you water should of course be adjusted depending on your conditions with more water being necessary during hot, dry, windy, climates versus cooler, wet, more humid conditions which will dictate how much water your tree might need as it grows. Eventually in about 4 to 6 years when your tree reaches maturity and is well established, you will not need extra irrigation because mature mango trees are typically able to thrive on very low maintenance. Frequent watering of mature trees can ruin fruit quality so this practice should be avoided.The only exception is if you are in an area of the country where droughts lasting from 1 to 2 months are a problem. FERTILIZERS: There is no need to fertilize your tree for at least one to two months after you have chosen your garden location. When mango trees are young they demand nitrogen in higher concentrations in order to create greater leaf production. Diluted fish emulsion applied once per month according to the manufacturers recommendation is high in nitrogen and will accelerate your plants growth. Very light but frequent applications of a complete fertilizer such as 6-6-6: nitrogen/phosphorous/potassium) can be applied every 2 months after the first year. Micronutrients can be applied directly to the foliage of young mango trees at least two times per year. Chelated iron may also be applied directly to the soil. Avoid any chemical fertilizers or any other products that are high in salt because they will decrease growth. SOIL: Mangoes do best in slightly acidic, loose, well draining, sandy soils that has a pH of 4.5 to 7.0. To ensure proper acidity, adding peat moss to the soil yearly will achieve this goal. If container grown you may use equal parts of a good quality, well draining potting soil and sand to ensure good drainage. Mango trees can be grown in containers if you live in a more colder climate. There are numerous videos on youtube that explain how to container grow a mango tree and how to grow mangoes in colder areas.
