What is the biggest mango fruit?

Mango Kiew Yai

🥭 What is the biggest mango fruit?

🔍 We discovered one of the biggest Mango fruit after we planted this new variety - Kiew Yai.

🦶 Right now the fruit is almost a foot long!

⏳ The tree was planted in April - only 3 months ago.

😋 Looking forward to tasting it soon and sharing our taste impressions with you. Stay with us!

⬆️ Reminder: In order to have good quality fruit, your Mango tree must be grafted. Grafted varieties start fruiting right away, while seedlings may take from 7 to 10 years to fruit and the taste of the seedling's fruit will always be a surprise, they may be small in size and very fibrous.

🎍 How to grow Bougainvillea bonsai
  • 🌸 Choose a Variety: Select a dwarf variety or one with smaller leaves and flowers for easier training. The best dwarfs are "Pixie" and "Sunvillea" varieties.
  • 🌸 Potting: Use a small, shallow bonsai pot with good drainage. A bonsai soil mix is ideal as it provides proper aeration and drainage.
  • 🌸 Pruning and Training: Regularly prune to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Use wire to train branches, but be careful not to damage the plant. Prune after flowering to shape and maintain size.
  • 🌸 Watering and Feeding: Water thoroughly when the soil is dry but avoid waterlogging. Use a liquid fertilizer such as Sunshine Megaflor for profuse flowering.
  • 🌸 Light: Place in a sunny location, as bougainvilleas require plenty of light to thrive and bloom.
