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.

This mango was probably a Haden seedling and was selected in West Palm Beach, FL in the 1950s, obtained from the yard of an individual who was reluctant to share the budwood by Laurence Zill and Jack Faircloth, the former mayor of West Palm Beach. Faircloth named the fruit after his daughter. It was recognized as being a productive tree and having attractive-looking fruit.
They are medium-to-large sized, round-shaped and turn red with yellow background color at maturity. The flesh is soft, melting, and fiberless, with a medium-sweet classic flavor with some pineapple undertones. The seed is monoembryonic.
The trees are reliable heavy producers, but somewhat disease-prone. The flowers are fairly prone to powdery mildew and the fruit can develop a large anthracnose spot on the top. On the plus side, Jaqueline fruited several times under heavy fungal pressure in Loxahatchee Groves for us.
They are very vigorous growers, with open upright canopy. It is an early season mango in south Florida, maturing primarily in June and early July most years in West Palm Beach, where it fruits very consistently.
