Description
About the Valencia Pride Mango Tree
Get ready to taste the goodness of the Valencia Pride Mango Tree! This sweet sensation is a Haden seedling, born and named in sunny Florida back in 1941. The fruit boasts a beautiful appearance with a large, wide, and oblong-sigmoid shape, covered in a yellow background and pinkish blush before it’s fully ripe. And when it comes to flavor, it’s unbeatable!
Expect a medium-sweet taste with hints of stone fruit and honey, making your taste buds dance with delight. The flesh is firm, light yellow, and almost fiberless, making each bite pure mango bliss. These vigorous growers with an open canopy offer excellent shade, making them an inviting addition to your backyard.
How to Grow the Valencia Pride Mango Tree
Growing the Valencia Pride Mango Tree is a tropical treat! These fast and vigorous growers are ideal for USDA Hardiness Zones 9-11. Ensure they bask in full sun and provide well-drained soil for their roots to thrive. These midseason mangoes ripen from late June into August, so get ready for an abundant harvest during the summertime.
These trees are generous producers, but don’t overfeed them to keep their size in check. Although they may not be the best choice for small spaces due to their size, they make excellent shade trees. Plus, their excellent resistance to anthracnose allows them to thrive even in humid areas like Palm Beach County.
Valencia Pride mangoes offer a unique taste, sweet, aromatic, and floral in flavor. Their longer, narrower shape and lack of a green hue set them apart from most mangoes. As the fruit weighs in at 16-32 ounces, you’ll have plenty of mango goodness to enjoy.
With a round, open canopy and a rapid growth rate, these mango trees can reach up to 25 feet tall and wide. For optimal growth, provide them with full sun exposure and well-drained soil.
