Mangoes, also known as "Mangifera Indica," are tropical fruit trees that thrive in regions with a warm climate. Here are some important details about mango plants: 1. Climate: Mango trees prefer a frost-free tropical climate. They can tolerate a wide range of climates, but they're sensitive to cold, especially when young. 2. Soil: They grow well in any well-drained soil with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5. They prefer slightly acidic soil. 3. Watering: They need regular watering but don't like waterlogged soil. Once established, they are fairly drought-tolerant. 4. Light: Mango trees love sunlight and need at least 6 hours of direct sun daily. 5. Growth: They can grow up to 35–40 m (115–131 ft) in height, with a crown radius of 10 m (33 ft). 6. Flowers and Fruits: The trees are long-lived, known to be 300 years with fruit. The flowers are produced in terminal panicles; each flower is small and white with five petals. The fruit takes 3-6 months to ripen. 7. Propagation: Mango trees can be propagated from seeds, but they may not bear the same quality fruit as the parent. Therefore, they are usually propagated by grafting. 8. Harvesting: The fruits are harvested in the mature-green stage. They will continue to ripen off the tree. 9. Pruning: Pruning should be done immediately after harvest to maintain the tree's size and shape and to remove dead wood. 10. Pests and Diseases: Mango trees can be susceptible to various pests like aphids, mealybugs, and powdery mildew. Proper care, including regular spraying of pest control when necessary, can help keep the tree healthy. Remember that mango trees can become quite large if not pruned, so they need plenty of space!
