How to plant an Okrung Tong Mango Tree

1. Choose a sunny location for planting. Be sure to allow a 15 foot diameter space for the tree so it has room to grow.
2. Do not mix any potting soil, manure, fertilizer or anything with the soil when you plant
3. Take the tree out of the container by laying it on its side and slipping the container off
4. Bury the root ball so the soil level is the same as it was in the container
5. Leave a mound around the tree for form a basin, fill with water, washing the soil into any empty pockets around the root ball
6. Now is the time to fertilize. Be extra careful because mangoes are very susceptible to burning with excessive fertilizing
7. Recommended fertilizer: 8-3-9 (or similar), with manganese, iron and zinc. Scatter one level tablespoon per foot of tree height
8. Established mango trees are very thrifty, requiring less fertilizer

Fertilizing Okrung Tong Mango Trees

• 2-3 Years: Once a month, scatter one level tablespoon of 12-5-9 fertilizer per foot of tree height, except in November through January
