MILLENNIUM MANGO

Edited by Zac B. Sarian

The editor of this page has tasted for the first time the ripe Millennium mango. The taste is superb. One taster compares it to a fine textured leche flan. It is sweet with very nice flavor (no medicine taste) and the fruit is very big. The fruit that this editor tasted was just one kilo but it could grow up to three kilos. The fruit tree is being multiplied by Bernie Dizon and the first 100 grafted seedlings may be available soon.

MILLENNIUM MANGO A HIT

by Zac B. Sarian

The Millennium mango which was released for the first time last Saturday at the Magallanes Weekend Market in Makati was a big hit. Only a limited number of grafted planting materials could be sold to each buyer.

Bernie Dizon, who has been propagating the outstanding mango, says however that more will be available this Saturday and Sunday.

The Millennium mango is a hybrid that produces big fruits, mostly one kilo each but some will develop into three kilos. The eating quality is excellent. The flesh has very fine texture and no fibers, is sweet and does not have the so called "medicine taste" common with imported mangoes.

This variety also bears fruit without any spraying with flower inducers.

Meanwhile, Dizon said that the Centennial mango (a carabao variety with thin seed and with fine texture and excellent eating quality) will also be available at the Magallanes Weekend Market at a discounted price (less P50 from the usual price).
