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.

Kathy was selected from Gary Zill's breeding program in Boynton Beach, FL (planting # K-3), and was a seedling of the Zill Indochinese (Zinc), making it a sibling of Venus and Sweet Tart. It has also been named 'Kryptonite' by Richard Campbell.
The fruit are oval, medium-to-large in size, and turn yellow at maturity. They have a fiberless flesh with a rich, Saigon-Indochinese hybrid type flavor with a milder, less pronounced tart component than that of its siblings.
The trees are medium-sized growers and the young ones can struggle with fungal problems. Its a mid-season mango maturing from July to August.
We planted Kathy in 2017. The tree has grown sluggishly thus far but has fruited several times. With some extra nutrition we've been able to revive the tree's health as of 2023.
Flavor: Indochinese hybrid
Country: Florida - USA
