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.

This mango was from the property of D.H. Martin in West Palm Beach, FL. Its parentage went unreported, but a 2005 USDA genetic pedigree analysis estimated that Mulgoba was one of its parents.
The fruit is medium-to-large in size, and has sometimes been called the "Pot Belly mango" due to its unusual bulging shape. The flesh is in the classic flavor group, yellow and mild/insipid, containing a monoembryonic seed.
The trees have a spreading, vigorous growth habit. We have found the fruit to be highly prone to Neofusicoccum rot disease and had poor eating quaity anyways, so have top worked our tree. We later discovered some limbs of 'Martin' growing inside the original Duncan mango tree, likely grafted on by David Sturrock.
