Soil, Fertilizer & WateringWhat is the best soil for mango trees?

A good mango site drains well while retaining enough moisture for roots between waterings.

Test unfamiliar soil and correct major drainage or compaction problems before planting. Avoid creating a small, highly enriched planting-hole pocket surrounded by unsuitable ground; the roots need to grow into the wider landscape as the tree establishes.
