Mangosteen Variety Fruit Plant
Product Features and Variety
The Mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) is a tropical evergreen tree, famously known as the "Queen of Fruits".
- Plant Type: Grafted Plant/Tree. Grafting accelerates the fruiting period, often leading to fruit production in 5-8 years, much sooner than seed-grown plants.
- Size: 1-3 Feet Height.
- Characteristics: A slow-growing, erect tree with a dense, pyramidal crown and thick, dark green, glossy leaves.
- Suitability: Best suited for warm, humid, tropical and sub-tropical regions of India (such as Kerala, Tamil Nadu, and Karnataka). Can be grown in a garden or a large pot.
The Fruit and Flowering
Mangosteen is prized for its exquisite fruit and distinct flowering:
- Flowers: Flowers are typically greenish-white or pink and usually appear during the dry season, leading to fruit set.
- Fruit: The mature fruit is spherical, smooth, and dark purple with a thick rind. The edible pulp consists of snow-white, juicy segments with a delicate, sweet, and slightly tangy flavor.
- Fruiting Time: Grafted plants may begin to fruit in approximately 5 to 8 years under ideal conditions.
Essential Care Guide for Indian Climates
Sunlight and Climate Needs
- Sunlight: Young plants require partial shade (filtered light). Mature trees are more tolerant of sun but prefer a balance of sun and shade, especially in humid conditions.
- Climate: Requires a consistently warm, humid, and frost-free environment. High atmospheric humidity is ideal for growth.
Watering and Soil
Consistent moisture and well-draining soil are crucial for the Mangosteen tree.
- Soil: Plant in deep, rich, well-drained soil that is slightly acidic (pH 5.0 to 6.5) and high in organic matter. Avoid waterlogged or heavy clay soil.
- Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Water deeply and regularly, allowing the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings. Regular irrigation is necessary where rainfall is inconsistent.
- Fertilization: Use a balanced tropical fruit fertilizer monthly during the main growing seasons to support healthy leaf and fruit development.
The secure paper core packing method used for shipping ensures the plant is protected and well-ventilated during transit.
