    Hi,

    I've grown a mango in a pot. It's about 2 1/2 years old now and has been doing ok, good leaf growth etc, but recently the leaves have started to fall off. I'm worried that it's too cold, (I live in the north of England now and although I've tried to keep it away from the windows at night time, it can get quite cold) but I'm not sure what's wrong and would appreciate any advice you can give about keeping it alive please! I've attached some photos.

    Thanks,

    Lucy

    you might try puting a room thermometer near the tree at night to check if it is infact too cold for it near the window (you can buy a cheap room thermomiter at a dollar store) then if it is too cold you could put some kind of heat sorce near it or you could put it under artificial light (maybe 200w CFL grow light) (or LED grow light) and that way you wouldnt have to keep it near the window, but atleast you would be able to find out by puting the thermometer near it if it is infact the cold or if it is an unrealted problem.

    hope it it all works out,
