This study was performed in three plantations (P1, P2 and P3) of <i>Cordia dodecandra</i> with different kind of management (P1, pruning, irrigation, weeding; P2, weeding; P3, without management), established in 2002 at <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Xmatkuil</st1:city>, <st1:state w:st="on">Yucatan</st1:state></st1:place>. The evaluation covered the period of September (2011)-August (2012). The phenology was determinated once a month using Fournier method. Production was assessed by harvesting and counting all fruit of all trees from each orchard and fruit quality was weighed and measured the length and width of a sample (n = 20) and obtained the moisture content of the same putting them in a dryer at 60°C. Results showed that P1 presented 100% leaves in September 2011, and during the period November 2011- August 2012. The percentage of leaves decreased to 25% only in the month of October 2011. P2 y P3 lost all their leaves during the period December-March. </span><span lang="EN-US">Regarding flowering, P1 presented flowers in percentage of 25% most of the year except for the months of June and July when the presence of any floral structure was recorded. The peak was observed in March.
