Climate, Cold & Container GrowingIs a plant hardiness zone enough to decide whether mango will crop outdoors?
Use the zone as an initial screen, then examine the timing, duration, and frequency of cold at the actual site. A tree can survive winters that still repeatedly damage its flowers. Compare local records with nearby bearing trees and ask what protection those trees receive. For a commercial planting, test the site on a small scale before treating survival in a sheltered backyard as evidence of dependable production.
