Kook Lom Krong is a dwarf variety from Thailand.
The fruit are oblong-cylindrical shape, turn yellow at maturity and are medium-sized. The flesh is yellow, fiberless, and has a sweet Thai type flavor. It is probably one of the better tasting Thai dessert mangos. The seed is thin and polyembryonic.
We obtained one from Hawaii a few years ago and planted it in 2017. The tree began fruiting in 2020 and has fruited well each year since. It has grown slowly and seems to live up to its dwarf reputation, while also being very disease resistant. For this reason It could be a good option for backyard growers in Florida with limited space.
Kook Lom Krong has been a mid-season mango for us ripening from late June through July.
Flavor: Thai
