Mango Tree - Grafted - Live Plant in a 3 Gallon Growers Pot - Mangifera Indica - Beautiful Edible Fruit Bearing Tree for Patio and Garden

The Mango Tree (Mangifera indica) is a fast-growing tropical fruit tree prized for its lush foliage, fragrant blossoms, and delicious fruit. Known for its glossy, evergreen leaves and broad canopy, this tree adds both visual appeal and practical value to any landscape. When mature, mango trees can reach heights of 30 to 100 feet depending on variety and growing conditions, although container-grown or grafted types remain more compact. Each spring or early summer, the tree produces small, cream-colored flower clusters that eventually yield one of the world’s most sought-after tropical fruits. Mangoes range in flavor from rich and spicy to sweet and citrusy, and typically ripen during the warmest months of the year. This heat-loving tree thrives in subtropical to tropical climates and adapts well to both ground planting and large containers in warmer zones. Ideal for home gardeners seeking a reliable, productive fruit tree, the Mango Tree offers not only flavorful harvests but also ornamental value, with its dense crown, long leaves, and striking seasonal growth. With the right placement and care, it can become a centerpiece of your edible landscape, orchard, or patio garden. A rewarding tree for growers who appreciate beauty and bounty in one.

• Physical Characteristics: Mango trees have a dense, rounded canopy with long, leathery leaves that emerge reddish-bronze before maturing to deep green. When in bloom, the tree produces clusters of tiny, cream-yellow flowers that give way to large, flavorful fruits.

• Sunlight Requirements: Mango trees perform best in full sun, needing at least 8 hours of direct sunlight per day. Proper light exposure is essential for strong vegetative growth, flower development, and consistent fruit production.

• Watering Needs: Young mango trees require regular watering to establish deep roots, especially during the first 1–2 years. Once mature, they become more drought-tolerant but still benefit from consistent moisture during flowering and fruiting.

• Soil Preferences: Plant your mango tree in well-drained soil with good aeration. Sandy loam or light soils are ideal. Avoid planting in areas with standing water or compacted clay soils that inhibit root development.

• Growth Rate and Climate Adaptability: This tree thrives in USDA Zones 9–11 and grows vigorously in warm, frost-free regions. In colder zones, it can be grown in large containers and moved indoors during winter to avoid frost damage.
