Note:

Price and Plant sizes can only be shown once you made a selection using the drop down boxes

Photos of plants are a representation of the plant (sometimes at full size) and not of the actual plant on offer.

We show you an image,so you can see what the variant of plant looks like.

It is fairly obvious that if we show you a picture of a large plant, but you select a small one, they will not be the same size.

Your selection of size will determine what size plant you receive based on the pot or planter size you selected. After making your selection using the drop down boxes, please visit the Additional Information Tab to see an estimate plant size based on the packaging dimensions.

Using planter size as size selector is standard practice in the Nursery Industry, as a retail-ready plant is a plant grown to size in the container it populates.

Our plants are always sourced from professional and reputable growers and our plants are of the best quality possible

Description

Mango Kent Tree A classic mango cultivar with a tropical twist. The Kent mango produces large, oval fruit with greenish-yellow skin and a red blush when ripe. Its deep yellow flesh is juicy, aromatic, and nearly fibreless, making it ideal for fresh eating, juicing, or desserts.

Growth Habit: Upright and vigorous, forming a dense canopy. Can reach 6–8 m but responds well to pruning.
Fruit Season: Late summer (Feb–April in SA).
Soil & Water: Prefers deep, well-draining soil. Water deeply during flowering and fruiting.
Fertilizer: Apply nitrogen-rich feed before flowering, and a balanced slow-release mix every 4–5 months.
Special Note: Susceptible to anthracnose in humid conditions—ensure good airflow and avoid overhead watering.
