Mango - Tommy Atkins or Haden

Tommy Atkins and Haden variety mangoes are bright, beautiful and tasty.

Out of more than 50 varieties of mangoes, Tommy Atkins and Haden Mangoes are possibly the most striking to the eye due to their vibrant colors.

Selection Information


Usage: Tommy Atkins and Haden mangoes can be seen from afar at your local market. Their beautiful reds, oranges, and yellow's jump out to the eyes and scream "Buy Me - I must be good!"

Great out of hand or over the sink, as sometime a real ripe mango can be a bit of a mess.

Selection & Storage: Choose large 10-12 count mangoes (it is the amount that fits in a case), with lots of color that yield to gentle pressure.

Avoid: Avoid small mangoes as they are invariably all seed.


Seasonal Information


There are at least 6 varieties of mango you may find at your local supermarkets - depending on the time of year.
