The grafted trees bear fruit sooner (2 to 3 years) and planting those seeds may not make fruit "true" to that of the mother plant (which doesn't mean it won't be good). If the tree wasn't grafted it is around 8 years before fruit, but the native trees have a better root system typically. They do get HUGE and when they are mature (we have a HUGE one) you will smell all the fruit that drops that is too high to pick. I am VERY sick of the smell and go out a couple times a day to chuck the dropped fruit down the slope where I can't smell it! katrina (ps Enida's has fresh fruit you can buy, try, and plant the seeds! We have gotten canisteel, mamey, rambutans etc from there. They even had a Jackfruit one time (we already have a couple of those trees though).

They grow big and can damage the cars and the roof with the leaves. It also could attract rats when the mangoes fall to the ground. It gets stinky too! I recommend you to plant it far from the house.
