How to grow Mango Palmer in Perth
1. Position
Choose a warm, sunny position.
Needs at least 6–8 hours of direct sunlight.
Protect from strong winds and cold winter conditions.
2. Soil
Use fertile, well-drained soil.
Avoid waterlogged areas.
Improve sandy Perth soil with quality organic matter.
3. Watering
Water regularly while establishing.
Increase watering during hot summer weather and fruit development.
Reduce watering during cooler winter months.
4. Fertilising
Use a quality fruit-tree fertiliser during active growth.
Feed young trees regularly according to fertiliser instructions.
Avoid excessive nitrogen during flowering and fruit development.
5. Pruning
Prune after harvesting to maintain a compact shape.
Remove dead and crossing branches.
Maintain approximately 2–3 metres if you want an easy-to-manage backyard tree.
6. Growing in pots
Suitable for large pots, ideally 500 mm or wider.
Use premium free-draining potting mix.
Ensure good drainage.
Palmer is self-fertile, so you generally only need one tree for fruit production. However, Perth's cooler winters can make mango flowering and fruiting less reliable than in tropical areas.

Compact size for smaller gardens.
Beautiful red and purple-coloured mangoes.
