The ‘Tenom’ mango is a variety believed to be named after Tenom, a small town in Sabah, Malaysia, a region renowned for its diverse mango cultivars. It is noted as a seedling of the ‘Springfels’ mango. The Tenom mango is characterized by its firm texture and its ability to color beautifully as it ripens. Unlike some mango trees that grow very tall, the Tenom tree exhibits a spreading growth habit. An interesting fact about the Tenom mango is its firm flesh, which makes it suitable for various culinary applications beyond fresh eating.
