In 2024 mango season, V.K.Sreeraman a cine artist put a facebook post about variety of mangoes being sold in a mango shop in Choondal,Kunnamkulam,Trichur. There were lots of different varieties mentioned which were not heard of. Myself and friend Anil wanted to visit and buy few of those varieties. Could not see all the varieties mentioned, most of them had been sold out, bought few kgs of priyoor, black andrews, chandrakkaran type and found another big mango, it was not having any name, bought 1 kg of that one also.
The new type without name was quite good mango with a basic taste of famous variety komanga. Its seed was polyembryonic hence put in grow bags,three germinated and multiple seedlings were separated and kept in grow bags for next season.
