Richard,
They are going to have a "Mango Tango" Festival in your neck of the woods there on Sunday, 1-3 PM. I spoke with the host and hostess. Very hospitable people! Bob & Kitty Miller's garden (Mt. Helix) 4502 Conrad Dr., La Mesa CA 91941, phone # 619.460.5943) Wish I could go. They are going to have grafting and air layering demonstrations. They are suggesting to buy Manila mangoes from HD to use as rootstock, and members of CRFG and Rare Fruit News Online will be contributing scion wood. Don't know if you know Leo Manuel, he's giving a demo on guava air layering techniques.

Sorry for the off-topic comments, people. But I;m so excited about it, though I can't go. Just hope people in the San Diego area will be interested. You might even get your picture in the local newsletter. They will have free treats! Mangoes galore!
