Tasting The Karen Michelle Mango

I'm back at Zill's High-Performance Nursery talking about new mango varieties coming out in the near future. Also tasted the Karen Michelle mango and we also looked at the tree.
Zill's High-Performance Nursery sells Mango Trees and other Fruit trees wholesale. They also sell Mangos retail to the public during mango season. Zill's High Performance Nursery is open now. Check out their hours and pick up some mangos from them.

Here is a description of the Karen Michelle Mango from the Tropical Acres Farms Website. It can also be seen at this link
www.tropicalacresfarms.com/pr...
Karen Michelle was an Edward seedling from the breeding program of Gary Zill of Boynton Beach, FL (planting # 1-15). It was named after the wife of Craig Campbell.
The original tree has reportedly been a very light producer. The fruit are large, ovoid and turn yellow when ripe. The flesh is medium-firm, fiberless, and has a very high quality, rich-sweet balanced classic flavor very similar to Edward, with perhaps a touch more sweetness than its parent normally.
We grafted a tree into Karen Michelle in 2017 to evaluate its production habits. The tree began fruiting in 2020 and has produced each year since. It has a moderately vigorous growth habit with a dense canopy. The fruit has ripened early-to-mid season for us so far and has been very resistant to mango bacterial black spot.
Flavor: Classic
Country: Florida - USA
If you have a yard growing fruit trees, I'd love to come and film, especially in the South Florida area. You can contact me at [e-mail] please include the area you are in.

That man right there is the best mango cutter in the world! look at that intensity and masterful tongue licking precision used to make every slice 150% accurate while peeling that mango! - You sir are a true mango master...

I loved Karen Michel. It is so far my favorite this year, it had a lot of coconut flavor. Me and my wife agreed Karen Michel is the best one so far.

Paul Thank you for another grand slam video. I love the format you use for this video where you tried the fruit and then you went to see how the tree grows. This is very helpful information for us backyard mango growers.

[@gardenmgr2035]

Love Zills!!

[@360VRStudios]

Karen Michelle, is a good tasting mango, I had one while I was at zill the past month. Very good tasting mango

[@nicholas8479]

For many varieties, the best flavor is by the skin. The top is cut off because debris, and more importantly, sap accumulates there.

[@KristyW72]

I tasted my first fresh mango a few days ago. WOW! Fell in love. Can I grow one of these in Panama City Beach Florida?

[@FruitfulTrees]

I think it gets too cold there

[@jeffery8928]

In a greenhouse.

[@SeraphimCherubim]

We need a Paul mango.

[@Carlos1075]

I agree. I think Zill should name the M-4 Mango as the Paul Mango.

[@jonathanotero1585]

Agree.. they should named it "Hallelujah", "Shalom", "St.Paul" or "the Pauly" ! 😂

[@SeraphimCherubim]

​@@jonathanotero1585 "The Pauly" lol

[@dgiacco]

I wat the skin!! Best fruit near the skin. Great video

[@nicholas8479]

Karen and Michelle were fighting over Marcello so they had a mango eating contest. Karen won.

[@jeffery8928]

Cap

[@paulchristianguzman3324]

Paul Nison - whatever happened to the zill 20-46 mango that tastes like a super pina colada??

[@FruitfulTrees]

He spoke about it in the video. And they gave it a name now. They are going to call it creamsicle

[@irvinjames9589]

Hey Paul where can i purchase a 3 gallon Creamsicle aka 40-26. I've been looking for one of those since orlando gardener has been promoting it.

[@FruitfulTrees]

the only person I know selling it right now is Alex at Tropical Acres farms but there is a waiting list to get it

[@jcamb72]

Does Karen Michelle perform well in Loxahatchee? (inland)

[@RepentanceGarden]

I’m growing it in Lox and it hasn’t fruited for me yet.. it had a hard time blooming this past year

[@RepentanceGarden]

@jcamb72

[@SeraphimCherubim]

Karen Michelle taste like Beverly.

[@tarap176]

Hi Paul, Do you know which local nurseries carry their trees?

[@FruitfulTrees]

Yes pretty much all the nurseries I interview on my show. They are very popular. Where do you live?

[@lorenbush8876]

Is a person required to have a sales tax permit to buy trees wholesale from them? Thanks Paul

[@FruitfulTrees]

you have to have some type of license saying you are a nursery

[@jeffery8928]

Karen Michelle is or at least was married to Richard Campbell's brother Craig.

[@nicholas8479]

I like my story better. 😂

[@bidenisasnake9932]

I've learned you CANT count your mangos until they've been eaten.

[@SeraphimCherubim]

Yep... sneaky neighbors.

[@Derpherppington]

@@SeraphimCherubim cameras on all plants

[@Derpherppington]

kind of annoying and unsanitize way to cut a mango and wasteful. he spent 10 mins cutting it and give you a tiny piece like for ant. give me the entire mango for god sake
