Orange Sherbet
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 is from the breeding program of Gary Zill of Boynton Beach, FL (planting # G-32). It was a seedling of Lemon Meringue, making it a sibling of the Lemon Zest mango.
The fruit are medium-szied, with an oval-oblong shape, turning yellow at maturity with an orange fiberless flesh. The flavor is incredibly rich and sweet with a strong, complex orange-citrus candy flavor. The seed is polyembryonic.
The trees are moderately vigorous growers and good producers. We have found that its resistance to bacterial black spot is better than its parent lemon Meringue and sibling Lemon Zest.
We top-worked a tree into Orange Sherbert in 2017, and added more in 2018 and 2019.
Flavor: Citrus - Burmese
Country: Florida-USA
