Named for Heisman Trophy winner and Florida Gator quarterback Tim Tebow, this hybrid developed by the University of Florida Tropical Research and Education Center is a real champion. Like the dual virtue of Tim’s running and passing game, the Tebow Mango has the venerable virtues of both quality and production. By crossing an Edward with a Kent the late Dr. Carl Campbell created a fruit that has the production qualities of the Kent and the incredible eating qualities of the Edward. Born on a large tree the fruit is yellow and pink when ripe, completely fiberless, and weigh about one pound each. It is a mid to late season bearer ripening from mid July to August.
