The optimal climate for growing mango ranges from the monsoon tropics to the frost-free subtropics, with a marked dry, or cool, season of at least three months to promote flowering. Seed - best sown as soon as ripe. Wash the seed, dry in shade and sow about 5cm deep with the convex side up. Germination takes about 18 days if the seed is peeled first, or 30 days if it is not. Give the seedlings some shade as they grow. Plants that are raised in nursery beds can be transplanted without much difficulty before the taproot has developed to any great extent. However, seedlings raised in baskets or containers are preferable. Grafting onto a polyembryonic stock<ref name="How to plant/cultivate"/>
