The mango is a tropical fruit highly prized throughout the tropics, and in most places it outranks in popularity both the banana and the orange. Once acquired, a taste for mangoes usually becomes almost a craving. Puerto Rico is favorably located for the growth of the mango, with the south side of the island possessing the right climatic conditions. Trees are very prolific and remarkably free from diseases. This book discusses the possibilities and requirements of growing the mango in Puerto Rico. It presents the best localities, and describes the most popular varieties, including Melocoton, Mangotina, Mango de rosa, Mango pina, Mango largo, and Mango mamey. The author also provides a detailed description of the different parts of a mango tree, including the leaves, flowers, fruit, and seeds. This book will appeal to anyone interested in learning more about the mango, as well as to those who are interested in growing their own mangoes.
