South Florida Backyard Nectar

Mango

Ceci Love

History

From Gary Zill's breeding program, derived from Carrie with likely additional Zill Indochinese parentage. Named by horticulturist Dr. Richard Campbell after his wife, Cecilia.

Taste profile

Starts with a slight tart edge that fades into a deep, syrupy sweetness with unusual cola-like notes - similar in spirit to Sweet Tart but generally sweeter overall, in smooth, completely fiberless flesh.

Growing habits

A compact, semi-dwarf tree, easier to manage in size than many mango cultivars, with strong disease resistance. Mid-season, June to July.
