IMPORTANT READ BEFORE Make your Grafting Request Order

Spring Grafted Trees should be ready the following Fall. Deadline is May 01

Late Summer & Fall Grafted Trees should be ready the following Spring. Deadline is October 01

 

A Pre-Order 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.

Piva is from South Africa, where it has been used as a rootstock that is capable of dwarfing some cultivars, including a number of Florida-types.

It is a red-colored oval-shaped fruit, small-to-medium in size, and produces beautiful inflorescence. The flesh is yellow and fiberless. The flavor is in the classic group and fairly mild with some earthiness, and is very comparable to Irwin. The seed is polyembryonic.

True to its reputation, the Piva tree has been a slow grower, really a dwarf tree itself with spreading horizontal habit and open canopy.. It has produced very well every year, and hasn't encountered problems with disease yet. It is a mid-season mango here, maturing in late June through July.

Flavor: Classic

Country: South Africa
