I adore Bowen mangoes too Gary, definitely my favourite fruit (probably a tie for me between bananas and mangoes…a good mango beats a good banana…but bananas are much more versatile and are tasty year round in Queensland, so I eat bananas most days…but a good mango is a very special experience!). I recently learned that Kensington Pride/Bowen mangoes are okay to grow from seed (unlike a lot of mango varieties that aren’t true to type). I’m planning on planting two trees in my back yard (fingers crossed I can keep them alive!).

I wish you every success in growing both trees. Growing up, we had a backyard tree, and its fruit was the sweetest and juiciest.
