IMPORTANT READ BEFORE Make your Grafting Request Order

Spring Grafted Trees should be ready the following Fall. Deadline is May 01

Late Summer & Fall Grafted Trees should be ready the following Spring. Deadline is October 01

 

A Pre-Order Grafting Request is an order for us to produce the specific tree that we don't currently have available in stock. We must graft the tree and then it must go through a multi-month process to heal and grow. Only Once the small tree has completed two flushes of growth since it was grafted do we consider it ready to leave our nursery.
This mango was reported by the person who grew it (a woman named Frances Hargrave) to be a Haden seedling, but it almost certainly has Keitt in its parentage based on its growth, foliage and fruiting habit. Selected in Miami, this mango received some attention for being promoted by the Fairchild Mango Festival as a Curator's Choice tree several years.

 

It has a lanky growth habit with large leaves reminiscent of Keitt. It is a good producer of medium-sized, yellowish elyptically-oblong shaped fruit with a pointed nose. The light yellow, fiberless flesh has a mild sweet flavor comparable to Glenn. The seed is monoembryonic.

 

Anthracnose resistance appears to be reasonably good and the tree would fruit in Loxahatchee Groves under high disease pressure. We took budwood from this tree and planted another in West Palm Beach in 2017 which has been fruiting well for years now. It may be a good choice for growers that want a productive classic flavored mango with less vigor than Glenn. The fruit and tree have been very disease resistant

 

Frances Hargrave is an earlier mid-season mango here ripening mainly from late June through July.
