Your new mango wants full sun, the more sun the more fruit you'll have. For the first 30 days you must water your mango tree to get it established, it does not want to be over watered. Look for a flush of leaves in the first month or so, this will tell you it's growing well. Once established mango trees do not want too much water and are drought resistant. You may want to sparingly fertilize at the end of August with a simple 6-6-6 fertilizer. The nitrogen in fertilizer, the first number, will help your tree grow leaves.  The second number, phosphorous encourages roots. The third, potassium creates the fruit. In the following years you may only be fertilizing with potassium for a good crop of fruit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIf you'd like to learn more about site selection, planting, proper irrigation, more advanced fertilizing, and pruning for your mango tree please check out the University of Florida's Agricultural Extension office's \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/edis.ifas.ufl.edu\/mg216\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003esite\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e on proper home mango care.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41488772366394,"sku":null,"price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2315\/8689\/files\/Carrie.jpg?v=1782411183","url":"https:\/\/orders.fairchildgarden.org\/products\/mangifera-indica-carrie","provider":"Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
