Bailey’s Marvel Mango Tree: A Tropical Delight for Your Backyard
Introducing the Bailey’s Marvel Mango Tree, a tropical gem that brings the essence of sunny Florida right to your backyard. This tree is a marvel indeed, with its robust growth and bountiful fruit production.
Growth and Size: The Bailey’s Marvel is a dynamic presence in any landscape. It exhibits a strong and expansive growth pattern, spreading its branches wide to form a dense, open canopy. Despite its vigorous growth, with yearly pruning, this tree can be comfortably maintained at a height of 15-20 feet. Its medium to large stature makes it a striking feature in your garden, but it’s not recommended for long-term container growth.
Fruit Production: The Bailey’s Marvel is a reliable bearer of fruit, producing a consistent yield year after year. The tree thrives particularly well near the coast, where disease pressures are reduced. Each season, it adorns itself with small to medium-sized mangoes, typically weighing between 0.75-1.5 lbs. These fruits boast a high flesh-to-seed ratio, promising a generous serving of delicious mango with every fruit.
Taste: The taste of a Bailey’s Marvel Mango is a delightful journey for the senses. It offers a classic mango flavor that is rich, aromatic, and profoundly sweet. The dense, deep-yellow flesh is fiberless, providing a smooth, juicy, and firm texture. A subtle hint of acidity adds a layer of complexity to its flavor profile, introducing tangy notes reminiscent of peaches that can be savored throughout the entire fruit.
Cold Tolerance and Disease Resistance: The Bailey’s Marvel stands out for its slightly superior cold tolerance, making it an excellent choice for cultivation in central Florida. It’s also known for its good resistance to Bacterial Black Spot, although it can be prone to Anthracnose and Powdery Mildew. Therefore, it’s best suited for drier areas, such as along the coast or accompanied with a disease treatment regimen for humid areas.
History: The Bailey’s Marvel Mango Tree has a rich history, having been planted by the Bailey Brothers in Pine Island, Florida, in the 1940s. It’s a seedling of Haden, with Bombay as its pollinating parent, and is a sibling to several other popular mango varieties.
In conclusion, the Bailey’s Marvel Mango Tree is a fantastic addition to any garden. Its vigorous growth, delicious fruit, and unique characteristics make it a must-have for any tropical fruit enthusiast. Experience the joy of growing your own mangos with the Bailey’s Marvel Mango Tree!
