There’s something deeply comforting about nurturing a plant through the colder months — especially when it promises the sweet reward of tropical mangoes.

About Tommy Atkins Mango

The Tommy Atkins mango is one of the most popular mango varieties in the United States thanks to its:

  • Sweet, mildly tangy flavor

  • Long shelf life

  • Beautiful red-gold skin

  • Strong, hardy growth habit

These heirloom, non-GMO mango seeds are ideal for home gardeners looking for a reliable tropical fruit tree.

Step-by-Step Planting Instructions

1.) Prepare the Seed

Carefully remove the mango pit from the fruit, clean off pulp, and gently open the husk to take out the inner seed.

2.) Pre-Germination Soak

Soak the seed in lukewarm water for 24 hours to encourage faster germination.

3.) Choose the Right Soil

Use well-draining organic potting soil — mango trees prefer slightly sandy, fertile soil.

4.) Plant the Seed

Place the seed sideways about 1 inch deep in a pot with drainage holes.

5.) Provide Warmth & Light

Keep indoors near sunlight or under grow lights. Ideal temperature: 70–85°F (21–29°C).

6.) Water Carefully

Keep soil moist but never soggy. Overwatering can cause rot.

7.) Transplant Later

Once the seedling grows strong, move it to a larger pot or greenhouse environment.
