Lemon Zest Grafted Mango

Botanical Name: Mangifera indica

Common Names: Lemon Zest Mango

Lemon Zest mango is a top tier variety that thrives in Perth. The fruit is packed with a bright, sweet citrus flavour that tastes just like lemon candy. It is an essential pick for rare fruit collectors and home growers who want outstanding tropical fruit from a manageable tree.

Features:

Ideal prune height range: 3-4m

pH growing conditions: 6.0 to 6.5

Shade or full sun: Full sun

Minimum pot year 5: 90L pot

Time to fruit age: 1-2 years from graft.

Lemon Zest mango trees have a moderately vigorous habit but stay easy to manage with annual pruning. They produce oval yellow fruit with rich, fiberless flesh. The tree handles Perth warm summers well with regular water during fruit set and needs protection from heavy frost while young.

Interesting Notes:

Lemon Zest was bred in Florida by Gary Zill and is famous for its punchy orange and lemon citrus notes.

The fruit is polyembryonic, meaning seeds can grow true to the parent tree.
