DETAILS AND CARE
Pram Kai Mea Mango Tree in 7-Gallon Pot available in Jupiter, FL
Rare, elegant, and prized for its early production—the Pram Kai Mea Mango Tree (Mangifera indica 'Pram Kai Mea') is a standout Thai variety celebrated for its smooth, green skin and rich, fiberless flesh. The name translates to “The Mother’s Egg Mango,” a nod to its smooth texture and oval, egg-like shape. It’s known to be one of the earliest-bearing mango trees, often fruiting when just a few feet tall—making it ideal for small-space gardeners and mango lovers who don’t want to wait.
In a 7-gallon pot, this tree is already well on its way to delivering your first harvest.
