Mango tree - help!

10 years ago

Hello everyone-

I bought a house with a mango tree which last year had the best mangos I had ever tasted; however, I started noticing the leaves got some dark and white spots and so were the fruits. Part of the tree seem to be drying up and leaves are yellowish. From reading the forums, it seems like it has been infected with Anthracnose so started using Southern AG Liquid Cooper as instructed.

Other trees have flowers while mine has none. I have no expertise on this field at all so I need everyone's help. I have attached some pics.

Thanks in advanced.

Sorry to hear about your mango tree...if there's no blooms by now you won't get any for this summer season :o(...Mango trees normally bloom between Dec-early March.

I wish I can tell you what is going on with your tree...you may need to take some leaves and maybe a small branch that's showing the symptoms to a local fruit nursery prefably ones that sell Mango...or maybe take it to your local Ag center? Best of luck!

Do you live in CA or FL...not that it matters...but in CA your mango season is a little later than us (FL)...
