Title: Another Successful ( Guava ) Mango Graft RBZT Method
Post by: edzone9 on August 13, 2019, 06:37:49 PM

Hello Members,

I Grafted this Guava Mango Scion on 8-2-19 Today I took thus picture and it looks like it’s pushing!
It’s the 4th Successful Graft using this RBZT METHOD.

My Multi-Grafted Mango tree is looking good so far 😉

I have never tasted Guava mango but it seems that it is highly desirable.  So much so that a West Coast guy *extremely* requested some scions which I sent him from cookie monster's tree.

Zands and Ed this is just a delicious mango. I got my 4-5 mangoes from Walter this summer and they were all delicious. I think it's a special mango that people should at least try.
Turns yellow when fully ripe.
Get your hands on some next year. I sure will!

I haven’t tried the zip ties but rubber bands really to help with a successful graft. Ed, how is the flavor profile of the guava? I always see it highly rated but rarely in a top ten list. Is it worth planting one?

** your answer may likely prompt a tree purchase
