Your tree is fine and blooming this time of year is perfectly normal and I would say a sign of a healthy grafted mango tree. I suggest you don't let it bear any fruit this year becuae that will take all it's energy up. Wait until the blooms have little pea sized mangos formed on them and then snap the entire bloom spike off, after that some regular branches will come in.

I agree with SWrancher's great advise.

Good luck with your Lancetilla. I have a small one blooming as well, mine is 3 years old but was damaged by the freeze last 2 winters so its not very big.

Thanks for your feedback "swrancher" and "puglvr1"!
Sounds like good advice - I'm still learning how to think like a plant.

The reason the Lancetilla (and also the Cogshall) are in pots is because of the freezes here in SW Florida. The last 3 years we have gotten down to about 24 degrees. So we got smart and now we have "mobile mangos" that we can wheel into the house on cold nights. We've done it 4 times this winter.

I totally hear you! Growing them in Zone 9 is no easy task...an awful lot of work and very sad when they get damaged or killed.

Wow, you live in a very cold Zone 10! 28 degrees was the coldest it got for me this winter, had (3) mornings below freezing in Janurary ...but in 2010 I had a few 24-26 degrees myself. I live in northern Highlands County.

I'm looking for a pickering mango now and that one is def. going in a Pot.
