We have seven mango saplings in our garden. None of them is flowering during this season! But our neighbours have mangoes in their garden, which gives us an opportunity to watch them grow!
It is a fruit that has become a crash crop in the recent years with more land used for mango groves! While going through the highways, I notice banana plantation is getting replaced by mango groves!
What delights me even more, that there are more plant nurseries than ten years ago, that supply saplings of variety of fruits. So most kitchen gardens have some fruit bearing trees! We have nine different fruits we get from our garden !
