Miyazaki Mango (Grafted)

About Miyazaki Mango (Grafted) - Irwin Variety

The Miyazaki Mango is a specially grown, deep-red-blushed strain of the mango cultivar, famous worldwide as one of the most expensive mangoes due to its intense sweetness, aroma and premium hand-cultivation in Japan's Miyazaki prefecture. This grafted variety brings the same genetics to a home garden.

Growing Conditions

• Sunlight: Full sun (6+ hours daily)
• Soil: Well-drained loamy soil, pH 5.5-7.5, enriched with organic compost
• Climate: Tropical to subtropical; thrives at 24-30°C, mature trees tolerate brief light cold, young plants need frost protection

Planting & Spacing

Grow in a large 20-24 inch pot or plant directly in the ground with 20-25 ft spacing if grown as an orchard tree. Best planting season in India is monsoon (June-August) or early spring.

Care

• Watering: Deep watering 2-3 times a week for young plants; reduce frequency once established. Avoid waterlogging - mango roots dislike standing water.
• Fertilizer: Balanced NPK plus organic compost 2-3 times a year, with extra potash during flowering and fruit development.
• Pruning: Light pruning after harvest to shape the canopy and remove dead or crossing branches; keeps potted trees compact.

Fruiting & Harvest

A grafted mango typically starts flowering and fruiting in 2-3 years, Trees flower in winter (Dec-Feb) and fruit ripens in early summer (May-June).

Note: This listing ships a young nursery plant (grafted/air-layered as stated), not a fruiting tree. Time to first fruit and yield vary by climate, care, and region - we don't promise a fixed timeline. Mango tree sap can cause mild skin irritation in sensitive individuals (same plant family as poison ivy) - handle pruning cuts with care. The fruit itself is completely safe to eat.
