Haitian Francine Mango Live Plant (Mangifera indica)

The wait is officially over! Hailed as the absolute Rolls-Royce of the fruit world, the Haitian Francine mango (also widely known as the Francis) has finally returned after a long, well-deserved seasonal break. This is the ultimate, most addicting mango variety you can buy. Handpicked at the absolute peak of ripeness from the lush hills of the Dominican Republic, these medium-sized mangoes are grown naturally on historic, large trees by individual farmers rather than commercial plantations, ensuring that each piece of fruit receives unparalleled, traditional care.

Visually, the Francine stands out with a striking, unique appearance. It features a distinct flat, slightly S-shaped, or kidney-like curvature covered in an easy-to-peel skin. As it matures to peak ripeness, the skin transitions into a beautiful golden-yellow hue, often retaining gorgeous, subtle hints of its original greenish tone. Beneath this skin lies a rich, beautifully classic stringy texture that is just waiting to be devoured.

But it is the flavor profile that truly makes this variety the pinnacle of mangoes. The Francine delivers a bold, incredibly intense sweetness mixed with a complex, slightly spicy undertone that hits your tastebuds like a freight train. Because these magnificent fruits are grown naturally and boast a notably short harvest window of just 6 to 8 weeks in the spring, they are a fleeting luxury. Do not miss your chance to experience the sweetest, yummiest fruit nature has to offer before the season closes!
