Alphonso Mango Tree

The Alphonso Mango Tree grows with great vigor as it is an upright grower with a nice canopy and nice skinny long leaves. A little more delicate to the weather but with a little protection the tree should have no problem thriving in your backyard. A little bit of a shy producer here in SoCal but it produces greatly after a year or two in the ground. The Fruit is extremely sweet and overpowering which is why they call it the "King Of Mangos". Definitely a great choice for those who are looking for something very sweet as the alphonso is sugary sweet and has a kind of spicy taste which gives it a complexity.
