Ceci Love Mango Tree in 15‑Gallon Pot Available in Jupiter, FL
The Ceci Love Mango (Mangifera indica ‘Ceci Love’) is a beautifully flavored tropical variety with silky, fiberless flesh and a rich, balanced sweetness. Known for its aromatic, dessert‑like flavor profile and strong productivity in warm climates, this grafted tree is a standout addition to edible landscapes and backyard orchards in South Florida. With striking golden skin and dense, juicy flesh, Ceci Love offers refined tropical flavor that appeals to both home gardeners and mango connoisseurs.
Growing in a 15‑gallon pot, this tree is robust and well‑established—ready to bring consistent harvests and lush garden presence to your edible landscape.
Care & Growing Info (Optimized for South Florida):
Sunlight: Full sun—minimum 6 to 8 hours daily for best flowering and fruiting.
Watering: Moderate. Deep watering once or twice weekly during dry spells helps roots establish and fruit set. Allow the top 2–3 inches of soil to dry between waterings.
Soil: Well‑draining sandy or loamy soil amended with organic compost for improved fertility and structure. Avoid waterlogged or heavy clay soils.
Fertilizer: Use a mango‑specific fertilizer 3–4 times per year. During bloom and fruit set, supplement with potassium and trace minerals to support larger fruit and sweeter flavor.
Growth Habit: Upright to moderately spreading. In the ground, Ceci Love can reach 15–25 feet but is easily managed with pruning. In a 15‑gallon pot, expect approximately 5–6 feet of growth and excellent fruiting potential.
Temperature: USDA Zones 10–11. Heat and humidity tolerant. Protect young trees from temperatures below 35°F during cold snaps.
Maintenance: Low to moderate. Light pruning after harvest enhances structure and airflow. Consider preventative copper fungicide applications in especially wet seasons to minimize fungal pressure.
Harvest & Seasonality:
Planting Time: Best planted from spring through early fall in South Florida.
Harvest Time: Mid‑ to late‑season—typically June through August.
How to Harvest: Fruit is ready to pick when the skin turns golden and emits a tropical aroma at the stem. Allow mangoes to ripen at room temperature off the tree for peak sweetness and silken texture.
Fruit Characteristics: Medium to large fruit with golden skin and smooth, fiberless, deep‑orange flesh. Flavor is sweet and tropical with layered floral and honeyed notes—truly a dessert‑quality mango.
