Pickering Mango Live Plant (Mangifera indica)

The Pickering mango is a quintessential "condo mango" developed in Florida, celebrated for its incredibly compact and bushy growth habit that makes it the gold standard for container gardening and small backyards. Despite its modest size, the tree is a prolific producer of medium-sized, golden fruits characterized by a firm, fiberless orange flesh and a unique, dessert-like flavor profile featuring strong notes of coconut and vanilla. While the skin often matures with a red and yellow blush, it is known among connoisseurs for appearing somewhat "dirty" due to its susceptibility to anthracnose—a superficial spotting that strictly affects the peel's aesthetics without compromising the exceptional, juicy quality of the fruit inside. For the space-conscious grower, the Pickering offers a perfect marriage of manageable scale and gourmet-tier flavor that rivals much larger traditional varieties.
