  • My two year old pickering mango tree produced 5 fruit this year, the first fruits it's made. I would say they were good but not great. Definitely picked too early so hopefully as the tree gets bigger and I let them ripen more on the tree I will be more impressed in the years to come. Please like and subscribe if you enjoy!

    One of my favorite mangoes, but there should be no green at all.

    Are those the same thing as the champagne mangoes you see in stores like Whole Foods?

      No, champagne mangoes are ataulfos, different variety than pickering.

      Pickerings are supposed to be very sweet when fully ripened.

    Each one was picked too early. There shouldn't be any green on the mango skin at all.

      Figured, but they came off very easily. Hopefully next year should be better.

    They didn't look quite ripe to me. Still too much green. Don't know why one was wrinkling though. Two of my Pickering mangoes got knocked off the tree (causes unknown) but both had already sized out and were just ripening. I left them on the kitchen table until they turned fully yellow before eating. I know the ones I pick will be much better, but they were still sweet but lacked complexity.

      Yeah they definitely weren't as developed as a mango should be, but I attribute that to the tree being two years old and producing fruit for its first time ever. I think the responsible gardener wouldn't have even allowed this tree to hold fruit at all. I'm looking forward to fully developed fruit in the years to come.

      @@BensExoticFlorida Pickering is the only mango that I let hold fruit in its second year. Now in its third year, it grew more than double the number of fruits, though they seem to be a little smaller. I'm anxious to compare the taste of a fully ripened one picked off the tree, to last year's.
