Pineapple Pleasure Mango - Tasting Florida Mangos

Today, Craig and Valerie taste a Pineapple Pleasure Mango - please watch to the end as this mango was picked early and ripened very unevenly.
We will be tasting both mangos grown at our own farm on the west coast of Florida and from other Florida farms (mainly on the east coast). Mangos taste different when grown in different conditions and when picked at different times/ripened differently. Our opinions of a particular mango are just that - opinions on one specific mango, off of a specific tree, growing in a a specific location. We are not evaluating a variety in general and by no means intend to offend anyone by our less than stellar review of what might be your favorite mango.
Sulcata Grove is our 2 acre, backyard food forest. We grow over 60 varieties of bananas along with many fruit trees. Our videos are family friendly.

My tree was decimated in the freeze just over a year ago. I have another one in a pot I am considering planting or at least grafting onto one of our other trees.

@@SulcataGrove it would be so so wrong of you if you didn't plant one, it hovers around the pina colada/Sugarloaf/coconut cream/lemon zest levels Of course NOTHING ON THE EARTH surpasses Sugarloaf but it has simular tones🎶🎶🎶

Orlando Gardener Thank you! It’s the last mango tree I have in our nursery. I will find a nice spot for it 😊 Hope you and your family are doing well.

Tracey one of the office people at Zill’s opened one up for me at the office 3 years ago and I totally flipped out it was so spectacular. Have 12 in the ground and 2 backups in pots in case I need to replace a tree. A properly ripened one is close to the flavor of a Sugarloaf. How can you beat that! If you want I can take a few photos of a few of mine if you want to see how it grows. It’s just a normal growth habit but a tad slower growing. If it’s not tipped regularly it could get scraggly.

Yea I got like 6 from Walter this year. First time tasting, instantly became my favorite mango. Instantly went out and bought a tree even though I have no more space ;) I’ll find a spot for it. Gave a few fruit to family they let it go way riper and said it was amazing and tasted like orange. My father in law tells me wow that’s really good but it’s very filling. Later I find out he ate an entire one by himself ahaha at almost 2 pounds of course it was filing 🤣

What kind of selfish, greedy individual goes out and buy a tree when they have no space to plant it? Lol I guess that will be me also with this plant addiction ( we can’t help ourselves)

Planted a Pineapple Pleasure 3 weeks ago in an inground filled in pool at the shall end. Hopefully, this will calm down its vigorous attitude. Gonna try to keep this tree under 12 ft

Just stay up on annual pruning. Our 12 year old Valencia Pride is under 12’.

We have a similar (pineapple) tasting mango in Bangladesh called Jhinuk. It is a late variety which is available during August-September. The difference between US & Bangladeshi mangoes in general is, UD grown mangoes normally taste good, those are tasty but not super intense. But Bangladeshi mangoes are either super sweet or super sour. Mango trees here grow really really big, like skyscrapers. One tree can give several tonnes of fruit. Here are some of the best varieties: 1. Himsagar (best) 2. Langra 3. Fojli (big) 4. Amropali (small but really sweet) 5. Harivanga 6. Bari 4 7. Laxmanbhog 8. Rani 9. Gopalbhog

If you let it fully ripen and put it in the fridge it will be a 10!

Enjoyed watching. I have a small coconut cream mango tree seems like I'm having a hard time trying to figure out how to prune it. Can you give me any advice. Thanks

bud row Richard Campbell has some good pruning videos on here. The twisted growth is always noticeable with CC

We tried a Pineapple Pleasure, just a tad overripe, and it tasted pretty bad... no pineapple tones, just an odd flavor. Tried a second, which was just right, and it was definitely a superior mango tasting experience. Had a couple more like that, and we're sold on a tree, when the time comes to plant in-ground, because I read that it is a vigorous growing, large tree. :)

Wondering how you keep your trees from getting huge? Getting a classic “Valencia Pride” as my first, I know it can get very large but wanting to top it ( I think that is the right term), but unsure when you would do it or if you would. Small yard so if you have a better selection will resell Valencia Pride for another.

A Fishes & Loaves Life VP is an aggressive grower. Craig takes out 1/3 of the wood each year

Perhaps has Keitt as a parent, which I consider a very "pineapple-y" tasting mango, and is one of my personal favorites.

I had the opportunity to buy one tree ripen fruit very large fruit from Walter Zill and it was the BEST. Its name is very appropriate. If it is not fully ripen then it is not very impressive.
