I have been growing and packing mangoes for Perth Western Australian markets particularly Kensington Pride and R2E2 variety but nothing can compare the taste of our very own manga cebu isn’t it. I’m proud of it.

Have you heard about the Chokonan variety? They say best at “manibalang” stage because it may be too sweet for some when ripe.

I bought some 1yr old trees over the weekend and replanted them in plastic bags. Supposed to fruit in 2 yrs.

My target is to have Chokonan by Easter 2009 :)

These magoes are called ‘Florida mango’ in Cotabato. Some of my relatives have fruiting trees already more than five years old and the fruits are even bigger but not that many. I remember one relative told me that this variety turn out fruit all year-round.

i saw these giant mangoes three weeks ago when i went to manaoag. had i not been carrying a couple of luggages then, i would have bought a couple to bring back home. i was told that they were really good. unfortunately, i wasn’t able to try one.

I don’t know if anything can beat the Guimaras mangoes. I’ve eaten my fair share and have only just had the chance to actually be in Guimaras and eat the mangoes at their peak and the experience is nothing short of DIVINE. I wanted to bring some back to Manila but was told that the Mangoes would be bruised and inedible.
