All Details
I am a prestigious and rare South Indian mango variety, highly regarded for my impressive size and my distinct, regal appearance. I produce large, heavy fruits with a smooth, thick skin and a deep orange, luscious flesh that offers a rich, traditional sweetness and a classic tropical aroma that fills the room.
I am a robust and high-yielding mango variety known for producing large, heavy fruits that are prized for their excellent pulp-to-stone ratio.
I am a traditional cultivar originating from the lush, tropical regions of Karnataka and neighboring South Indian states.
I need deep, regular watering during my fruit-setting and development stages, but I prefer my soil to be kept on the drier side once the fruit reaches full size.
I thrive in full, intense sunlight for 8 to 10 hours a day, which is essential for me to produce my large, high-sugar content fruits.
I am perfectly suited for hot, tropical climates between 25°C and 38°C and can handle the intense heat of a typical Indian summer with ease.
I require significant space to accommodate my wide-spreading canopy and deep, well-draining soil to support my extensive root system.
I am a heavy feeder; I appreciate a generous application of well-rotted cow manure and potash-rich fertilizers during the pre-monsoon and post-monsoon seasons.
My scientific name is Mangifera indica 'Vastara' and I belong to the Anacardiaceae family.
While my ripe flesh is a delicious treat for pets, my sap and leaves contain irritants, and my large stone should always be kept away from them.
My massive, dense evergreen canopy acts as a powerful carbon sink, significantly improving local air quality and providing cooling shade.
I am an excellent source of dietary fiber and Vitamin A, and my large fruit size makes me a favorite for sharing and large family meals.
Due to my large fruit size, my branches may need physical support to prevent snapping, and I should be monitored for fruit borers.
I am a very long-lived perennial tree that can continue to provide legendary harvests for 40 to 60 years or more with proper maintenance.
