Carrie Mango Tree Grafted ( Early Season )

Carrie Mango Tree – Island Gardeners Nursery
The original tree was grown on the property of Laurence H. Zill in Boynton Beach, Florida and was reportedly a seedling of the 'Sophie Fry' mango. A pedigree analysis of the Florida mangoes conducted in 2005 that did not include Sophie Fry instead the study found Julie to be the most likely parent,^[1] though Julie is also the parent of Sophie Fry. The Carrie tree was named after Lawrence Zill's mother, Carrie Zill.^[2] It first fruited in 1940 and commercial propagation began in 1949.^[3] Thereafter Carrie gained a reputation for having excellent eating qualities and good disease resistance.^[4] Its commercial application was limited due to the fruit's lack of color and soft flesh, but it became a popular dooryard variety in Florida.  (Wikipedia )
