30 years in the making

At Christmas, every year, without fail I would devour mangoes dry them out and plant them in the hope that the next December when I returned to my great grandfathers property there would be a bountiful mango tree in the garden. This may have been some what fanciful or my Pa Mac might have been going along behind me digging up what I planted?
This afternoon I was doing a little more pruning and discovered this....



- a little mango tree growing out of a dried up mango seed I threw out the kitchen window!
I did it! I grew a mango tree! Not mindfully, but it's still there. It may have taken 30 years but I'm on my way to a bountiful crop... In a few years.


Evidence it is a mango- see the 2 seeds! Willfully abandoned in the compost. Awesome
