IMPORTANT READ BEFORE Make your Grafting Request Order
We are only able to graft twice a year, Late Spring & Late Summer.
- If we receive the order between after September 24th and before May 1st, The trees will be grafted in Spring & should be ready by the end of the year.
- For orders made after May 01st and before of September 24th will be grafted in late Summer and should be ready in the Spring following year, May most likely.
Only Once the small tree has completed two flushes of growth since it was grafted do we consider it ready to leave our nursery.
(Estimated time is 6 to 8 months. Some varieties take longer time to growth)
This mango was selected and propagated by mango enthusiasts Jenny and David Burd of Naples, FL.
We knew little about it but planted one in 2017. In 2019 the tree fruited and we enjoyed it, finding it had a very nice Indian flavor with a lot of potential as the tree gets older. The fruit are very attractively colored and oval-shaped. The flesh is moderately firm, juicy and sweet with Indian spice notes and a mild amount of resin. The seed is monoembryonic.
D Burd's fruit mature in late June to July. The tree itself seems to have a spreading growth habit and has grown somewhat slowly, almost dwarf-like. It has continued to fruit for several years so appears to be a consistent bearer and perhaps deserves more attention.
Flavor: Indian/West Indian
Country: Florida-USA
