Description

Upgrade your edible landscape with a guaranteed producer! Choosing a grafted mango tree ensures you get the exact, true-to-type premium cultivar you want—delivering superior flavor, smooth fiberless flesh, and consistent fruit quality every single season. Best of all, while seed-grown trees can take 6 to 10 years to bear fruit, a grafted mango can start flowering and setting fruit in just 2 to 3 years. With its lush evergreen canopy and rapid growth, a grafted mango is the crown jewel of any Florida regenerative food forest.

Quick Care Guide: Mango Tree

☀️ Light: Full sun fanatic! Mangoes need at least 8 to 10 hours of unobstructed direct sunlight daily to fuel vigorous growth, heavy flowering, and sweet fruit production.

💧 Water: Water regularly while establishing the young root system. Once established, mangoes are very drought-tolerant and actually benefit from a drier rest period in mid-to-late winter to trigger heavy bloom set.

🌴 Humidity: Thrives in Florida's warm, humid climate. Ensure good spacing and airflow around the branches to prevent fungal issues during wet spring blooms.

❄️ Cold Hardiness: Sensitive to freezing temperatures, especially around the tender graft union. If a winter freeze or frost is forecasted, bring potted trees indoors or cover them thoroughly with frost cloth all the way to the ground.

✂️ Maintenance: Regularly prune away any growth emerging below the graft union. Once fruiting begins, prune the upper canopy annually right after harvest to maintain an open structure and manageable height. Feed during the growing season with an organic, slow-release fertilizer rich in potassium and micronutrients.

🐾 Toxicity: The ripe fruit flesh is completely safe and edible, but the sap, leaves, and outer fruit peels contain urushiol-like compounds that can irritate sensitive skin and cause digestive upset if pets chew the branches or foliage.
