Where and when to plant Farrales mango
The Carabao mango is the one the market wants, and the registered strains are its best trees, picked for size, sweetness and steady bearing. Buy grafted seedlings from a BPI accredited nursery so you get the strain you paid for. A registered tree variety is a selection from one proven mother tree, and only grafted, budded or marcotted plants carry its traits. A seedling grown from its seed can turn out quite different. So buy from a nursery accredited by the Bureau of Plant Industry, and ask which mother tree the scions came from. Before planting, get the field ready with our guide: Pagtatanim ng puno.
