Giselle
IMPORTANT READ BEFORE Make your Grafting Request Order
Deadline for Fall 2023 Orders is May 01st/2023.
Orders will be grafted this Spring, and should be ready in the Fall/2023.
A 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.

Giselle is from Gary Zill's breeding program in Boynton Beach, FL (planting number 35-6) and was a seedling of "Tower". It was described to us as a "juice mango" and is named after Gary's wife.
We started growing it in 2017. The fruit is medium-sized, ovoid-shaped, developing a reddish blush on the skin. The flesh is dark yellow/orange, and is indeed quite juicy but not very fibrous. Giselle's flavor is of the Indian/West Indian sort and tastes like an outstanding Graham mango when that variety is on point. It has a small polyembryonic seed. We've been extremely impressed with this mango's decadent flavor.
The tree is a highly vigorous, upright grower with dense canopy. Unfortunately the fruit is very prone to mango bacterial black spot, but Giselle may be a great mango for people in southern California or central/West Florida.
Flavor: Indian/West Indian
Country: Florida - USA
