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.

The Juliette is a seedling of Julie from the breeding program of Gary Zill in Boynton Beach, FL (planting # HE-4).
The fruit are fairly small, oval shaped somewhat similar to Julie, turning a light yellow-green color at maturity with less pink blush than its parent. The flesh is very soft, fiberless, and has a rich Indian spice flavor that we and others believe tastes more similar to Carrie or Ugly Betty than Julie. The seed is monoembryonic.
The trees are definitely more vigorous growers than Julie, with a more upright growth habit and very dense canopy.
Production appears steady and reasonably good, and more interestingly the season is mid-late, with the fruit ripening from July into August most years, making it a good option for people who desire a later-fruiting Carrie-like flavored mango. Juliette appears promisingly resistant to bacterial spot and rot, but may be prone to anthracnose in more humid areas.
Flavor: Indian-Alphonso
