seedlings, because of the tap root are a good option over a plain ole cutting.
IF
you graft a cutting from a healthy fruiting tree onto the seedling.
if you do not (do the above) your plant may take years to fruit, or may never fruit.
Many nurseries sell trees taken from cuttings that have very little rooting established and do not grow as fast or healthy as a tree grown from the tap root.
