Kesar
The mango was grown in 1931 by Junagadh Wazir Sale Bhai in Vanthali. About 75 grafts were then planted in the foothills of Girnar at the Junagadh Laal Dori farm. The mango is said to have been known as "Kesar" since 1934 when the Nawab of Junagadh, Muhammad Mahabat Khan III said "This is Kesar" looking at the orange pulp of the fruit—
kesar being Gujrati/Hindi for saffron.
Kesar is India’s second mango variety in terms of exports. In terms of flavour, it is second only to
Alphonse, which many describe as the best on the planet. Kesar is appears to perform fairly well in the climate of south Florida.
