We are clearing brush and happened upon 3 mango trees. One was overtaken by a "weedtree" that we took down- and now have a nice round canopy mango tree- that looks about 30 yrs old. One of the other trees is almost dead with just a few areas of growth at the tops of branches. Another tree is a baby and I'll let that one grow. I was thinking of chopping down the one tree that is almost dead. What can I do to improve the health/possibly fruiting of the other two trees. I'm up high here in Piihonua. Probably at about 1,000 ft. Can an old tree be made to fruit, if it never has before? thanks.
