The Criollo Mangoes in the Market - Sign 68

Saturday, February 17, 2024
 We saw quite "small size" mangoes sold in the ethnic store just recently. The mangoes called as "a mango criollo." 


Fig 01 - Sign of Mango Criollo. 

This mango has many common names include wild Mexican, Indio, Coche, Mexican and Corriente mango. Based on its common names, we may guess its origin. Yes, the origin is from Mexico. 

If lucky enough, we may find two kinds of Criollo mangoes in the ethnic markets (Mexican groceries or Asian shops):
1) Criollo wild
- smaller sizes 
- highly favorite because of their flavorful and rich in nutrients.

The Criollo cultivated mangoes have some advantage's abilities compare to Criollo wild mangos.

Cultivated mangoes are able to self-pollinate and heavy crops production in warmer areas or regions.

Some beginner mango growers choose Criollo mangoes as their great choice since the plants have minimal care requirements and excellent productions.
