<p><b>Q:  </b>I  just  ordered  a  mango  tree.  I  live  in  Southern  California  and 
 


was  wondering  if  you  have  any  tips  on  how  to  acclimate  the  mango  to  our 
 


climate.  I  know  it  is  coming  from  hot  and  humid  Florida  to  hot  and  dry  Southern 
 


California  and  don't  want  to  kill  it  because  of  the  differences  in  climate.</p>














<p><b>A:  </b>Mangos  in  fact  prefer  dry  conditions  rather  then  humid.  It  may 
 


be  perfect  conditions  for  a  mango  tree  at  your  place.  Plant  your  tree  in  a 
 


pot  size  of  the  root  ball;  give  it  ample  water  and  then  let  the  soil  surface 
 


slightly  dry  before  watering  again.  Keep  the  plant  in  bright  shade  and 
 


gradually  move  into  full  sun.  Once  the  tree  is  recovered  from  shipping  stress,  you 
 


may  plant  it  in  the  ground  and  make  sure  to  protect  from  freezing  temperatures 
 


in  winter.  Use  <a
