Title: Selling off my HUGE collection of mango trees
Post by: dongeorgio on January 28, 2017, 10:19:08 AM
Yes, you read that right.  I am just planting a few and selling off the rest.  They vary in size from 3 gal to 25 gal.  I will not ship any and all must be picked up unless you make me an offer I can't refuse.  Please contact me with what you want and I will let you know prices based on size and rarity.

OK, the offers have come in fast and furious.  I am hitting pause and dealing with those who sent actual dollar offers first.  I need to do some grafting to get all of the varieties I want on the varieties I am keeping.  I didn't expect this level of response so quickly and was unprepared for it.  Let me catch my breath and we will resume later.

Many thanks!  I am going to get some trees topworked so will need some DH budwood in a few months. How do you like the taste? I need early and DH looks good for this.

After careful consideration and and advice from one of the 'higher ups' in the mango community, I have decided that my collection will be auctioned off individually in the coming months as time permits me to get pictures and sizes to give everyone a fair shot.   If people out of state want to participate, they simply need to arrange packaging and shipping.   More details to follow as I work out the logistical nightmare of selling this collection.

Due to the volume of emails, I will doing one last run of budwood so I don't "cut you off out of no where".  I'll take orders for probably the next month or so to give everyone a crack and will be on a first come, first serve basis.  Thanks for the emails both encouraging and mildly threatening lol.

George, are you going to have a live on site auction? I'm sure many of us in So. Fla. would not only like an opportunity to bid but see what we're bidding on.
Title: Re: Selling off my HUGE collection of mango trees
Post by: dongeorgio on February 13, 2017, 06:45:22 AM
When the time comes, it will be an auction on this forum with pictures of what is up for grabs.  The task just seems so daunting and I still want to multi graft a few more varieties before I sell them off so I am not sure when I eventually will.

Ladies and Gents,


   After careful consideration, I came to the conclusion that I must have been out of my mind.  I can not possibly part with my collection.  Sorry for those of you looking to buy trees but congrats to you looking to buy budwood.  As soon as the trees are finished fruiting, we are back in business!

George, that is great to hear! I am so glad for you that you are keeping your collection for your benefit and enjoyment. And I am so glad (selfishly) for us that you are keeping your trees so we can continue to buy top-quality budwood in such a vast variety!

I'm curious, George (no, I'm not Curious George).  If you have all those mango trees in pots, how many trees do you have in the ground, and did you reach the max for trees in the ground?
Title: Re: Selling off my HUGE collection of mango trees
Post by: dongeorgio on April 25, 2017, 10:41:12 PM
I've got maybe 40 in ground and the rest in pots.  I have room to put another 40+ in the ground but the wife wants open space for the kids to play so the last 40+ needs to be snuck in one at a time over the course of years so I don't set off her alarms.

That sounds like something I'd do lol. I am eagerly looking forward for some budwood for grafts when you make them available again also :D

So don't have any more kids, and the ones you have will grow up and pretty soon they won't need play space, and you'll be able to plant more trees!
