Planting & Care

When your starter plant arrives, carefully remove it from its packaging and water it lightly. If planting in the ground, choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and plant at the same depth as it was in the nursery pot. Backfill with soil, tamp gently, and water thoroughly. For container growing, use a large pot with drainage holes and a quality potting mix. Place in a sunny spot and water when the top inch of soil feels dry.

During the first few weeks, keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged to help the plant establish. Once established, mango trees are moderately drought-tolerant but benefit from regular watering during dry periods. Fertilize with a balanced fruit tree fertilizer according to package directions. Protect young plants from frost or freezing temperatures.
