All Details
I am a world-renowned late-season mango variety, famous for my massive fruit size and my ability to extend the mango season long after others have finished. I produce large, oval-to-oblong fruits with a sea-green skin that often features a light pink blush. My lemon-yellow flesh is firm, incredibly sweet, and completely fiberless, making me one of the most popular commercial and garden mangoes in the world.
I am a high-yielding, late-ripening mango variety prized for my exceptionally large fruits—sometimes weighing up to 1kg—and my smooth, creamy texture.
I originated in Florida in the late 1930s as a seedling of the Mulgoba variety and have since become a global staple.
I need consistent, deep watering during my fruit development stage, but it is crucial to ensure the soil is well-drained to avoid "jelly seed" or root rot.
I thrive in full, direct sunlight; maximum sun exposure ensures my fruits develop their best flavor and reach their impressive size.
I love warm, tropical to subtropical climates between 21°C and 35°C and have a slightly better tolerance for cool weather than some other tropical mangoes.
I have a vigorous, spreading growth habit and need plenty of room in the garden or a very large orchard space with deep, fertile soil.
I benefit from a balanced fertilizer in early spring and an extra dose of potassium during the fruiting stage to support my heavy and large harvests.
My scientific name is Mangifera indica 'Keitt' and I belong to the Anacardiaceae family.
My fruit flesh is a safe, Vitamin-rich treat for pets, but my sap and leaves contain urushiol, which can be irritating to their skin and mouth.
My expansive evergreen canopy is a powerhouse for carbon sequestration, filtering the air and providing deep shade for your garden.
I am an excellent source of dietary fiber and Vitamin C, and because I ripen late (often into autumn), I provide fresh mangoes when most other trees are dormant.
I am known for my excellent resistance to anthracnose, but I should be monitored for scale insects and protected from heavy winds that might drop my large fruits.
I am a robust and long-lived perennial tree that can provide you with massive, sweet harvests for 40 to 60 years.
