Lawrence Zill

Lawrence Zill, also encountered as Laurence Zill in horticultural accounts, was a South Florida nurseryman associated with mango propagation and the Zill family's growing history. Keeping those name variants together helps readers follow older records. Cultivar histories need particular care: introducing or propagating a mango does not prove that the grower bred it or named it for a relative. Distinguish introductions, seedling selections, and later nursery distribution when researching Florida mango history, because those activities can involve different people and dates.
