3Gal FLORIGON Mango Tree. Grafted Live Plant Fruit Soon in 1-2yrs. Ship in Container
Florigon was the result of a home hybridization project by John Kaiser of Ft. Lauderdale, FL , who was once the police chief there. Kaiser planted different seeds of Saigon mangos and selected one that likely had Haden as pollinating parent which fruited in 1936. He named this seedling the "Florigon", a combination of the words "Florida" and "Saigon".
Florigon mango is a fiberless mango variety from south Florida. This mango variety is highly disease resistant and produces exceptionally flavored yellow skinned fruit. The flesh is firm with a deep yellow color and mild flavor.
