Where does mangosteen come from? 1. Introduction of origin
Mangosteen originated in Maluku area and belongs to tropical fruit. Mangosteen is widely planted in tropical areas of Asia and Africa. At present, there are also introduced plants in Yunnan, Guangdong, Fujian, Taiwan Province and other places in China, but the output is low because the environment is not suitable for mangosteen growth.
2. Shape characteristics
Mango persimmon, also known as mango persimmon, is a kind of small tree with plant height ranging from 12 to 20 meters, many branches, thick leaves and oval shape. Its flowering period is September 9- 10/October every year, with yellow-green flowers with red lace, ripe fruit in winter and purple color.
3. Breeding method
When planting mangosteen, loosen the soil regularly to avoid water accumulation in the soil and lead to root rot of the plant. Mangosteen has poor wind resistance. Shelterbelts and windbreaks should be built in the planting area to prevent mangosteen from being blown down by the wind, and to provide them with decomposed farm manure and organic fertilizer to supplement the nutrition of the plants.
