IMPORTANT READ BEFORE Make your Grafting Request Order
We are only able to graft twice a year, Late Spring & Late Summer.
- If we receive the order between after September 24th and before May 1st, The trees will be grafted in Spring & should be ready by the end of the year.
- For orders made after May 01st and before of September 24th will be grafted in late Summer and should be ready in the Spring following year, May most likely.
Only Once the small tree has completed two flushes of growth since it was grafted do we consider it ready to leave our nursery.
(Estimated time is 6 to 8 months. Some varieties take longer time to growth)
Ox (short for 'Oxkutzcab') is a variety selected in the Yucatan area of Mexico and introduced to Florida decades ago.
It is known for producing VERY large sized fruit, larger than most commonly found varieties of sapodilla.
The flesh has brown to light red color and some grit but not many seeds. The tree is very vigorous and only a moderate producer.
The fruit typically mature in the late Spring for us.
