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 is one of several Saigon seedling hybrids grown by the USDA in Miami, each with an S numerical designation. It was a seedling of accession MIA 4329 , which itself was a seedling of the original Saigon introduced around 1904. 

We acquired S-1 around 2018 and planted the tree in the ground sometime around that point. The tree first fruited in 2021 and appears productive.

It is a yellow, oval-oblong shaped fruit of medium size, with a light yellow colored flesh. It has a minimal amount of fiber, with a mild Indochinese hybrid flavor similar to Florigon. The fruit appear to be very disease resistant 

 

The tree has a spreading growth habit with open canopy, and has low-to-moderate vigor. S-1 appears to be an early to mid season mango in West Palm Beach, ripening in June and July.

 

Flavor: Indochinese hybrid

Country: Florida - USA
