Climate, Cold & Container GrowingHow close to a building should I place a mango for warmth?
Balance shelter with room for the tree and safe access for pruning, protection, and harvest. A wall's potential warmth does not justify planting where branches will contact the roof or roots and maintenance operations will be confined. Observe how winter shadows cross the proposed position. If only a narrow strip is available, consider whether a movable specimen is more manageable than a permanent tree that will soon exceed the space.
