Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is one of the most important fruits of India belonging to family Anarcardiaceae. The study was conducted to evaluate the phenological and reproductive development of different mango cultivars. The variables were total plant height, plant spread, stem girth, date and time of panicle emergence, panicle length, date of start of flowering, date of full bloom flowering duration and fruits physical characteristics. The maximum plant height was observed in cultivar Neelum (111.13cm and 180.33cm) while, the average plant spread was found to be maximum in cultivar Langra (119.83cm and 170.54cm) in the East-West direction and (118.74cm and 169.76cm) in the North-South direction while, the lowest plant spread in the East-West and North-South direction was recorded in cultivar Dashehari (97.90cm and 155.64cm) and (97.00cm and 149.52cm) during both the years of investigation, respectively. Flowering duration among mango cultivars differed significantly and it ranged between 11.33 -19 days and 12-19 days during both the years of experiment, respectively. It is concluded that some varieties like Langra, Burma Surkh, Bombay green, Samar-e-Behist Chausa, Sorav and Rataul were superior in most of the traits.
