Madame Francis
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.

Madame Francis is from Haiti, and is the most popular and commonly grown mango in the country, seeing considerable commercial acreage.
The fruit are slightly oblong-kidney shaped, medium sized, and turn solid yellow at maturity.
The orange colored flesh contains a polyembryonic seed and has some fiber, which can range from minimal to high depending on the amount of nitrogen its receiving. The flavor is quite rich, sweet and wonderfully strong, with some spice notes but not particularly resinous. The trees are vigorous growers with open, spreading canopy.
Anthracnose of the flowers is a problem with Madame Francis in the interior but it produces quite well in coastal regions. They require minimal stimulus to bloom and are an early season mango in south Florida, usually ripening from June to July. The tree has a vertical and dense canopy.
