Kensington Pride
The 'Kensington Pride' mango is a named commercial mango cultivar that originated in Australia. It is sometimes called the KP, Bowen or Bowen special. It is Australia's most popular mango, accounting for over 80% of the country's annual commercial mango market.
In Australia, commercial Kensington Pride mangoes grow predominantly in the Northern Territory and northern and central Queensland, providing early (September–November) and late season (December–February) mangoes respectively. Some late-season fruit are from the Kununurra region in Western Australia. Very few commercially available fruit come from south-east Queensland or northern New South Wales, and fruit from these latitudes is generally of lower quality.
== History ==
The original tree was grown in Bowen, Queensland and described in the 1960s,〔http://www.crfg.org/pubs/ff/mango.html〕 where it was also given the name "Pride of Bowen" and "Bowen Special". It was possibly brought to Bowen by traders who were shipping horses for military use in India.〔http://www.hort.purdue.edu/newcrop/morton/mango_ars.html〕
'Kensington Pride' was recognized for its flavor and became the most widely grown commercial mango in Australia, and remains so today〔http://www.dpi.qld.gov.au/26_18931.htm〕 despite the introduction of other varieties. It is grown widely in the tropical and sub-tropical regions of the country. 'Kensington Pride' was also introduced to the United States via Florida, where it is sold on a limited-basis as nursery stock for home growing. 'Kensington' trees are planted in the collections of the USDA's germplasm repository in Miami, Florida,〔http://www.ars-grin.gov/cgi-bin/npgs/acc/display.pl?1081340 USDA, ARS, National Genetic Resources Program.
