Mine in ground for 8 months with two flushes but very small flushes, appears to be slow grower in CA.
Can someone please post pictures of new fresh growth leaves and matured leaves? wanted to compare if I got real one, lately Florida nurseries are sending us mislabeled stuff.
I called la Verne and asked them directly. They said they use the same rootstock for all their mangoesband just graft on other varieties (like keitt). For Manila, they just let thebrootstock grow.
I did try and graft on earlier this season. Didn't takenbutbthat was probably me.
I recently found a 15 gallon la Verne Manila monster at h&h nursery in Lakewood. Couldn't believe the size of this juggernaut. Will post a picture if I can figure that out later.

Based on experience and also parroted in expert's guide after thorough testing of rootstocks. Can't find the link but FD is known for being the most prone to chlorosis of them all. Google is your friend.

Note that the older foliage is chlorotic?
