Mangifera casturi

$5.00

Mangifera casturi is a remarkable aromatic fruit tree recognized for its compact, oval fruit with dark purplish-brown skin and deep orange, intensely fragrant flesh. The dense, glossy foliage and moderate tree size give the species a manageable yet distinguished presence compared to larger mango relatives. Its rich musky aroma, sweet flavor, and strong cultural identity give the species a highly distinctive character prized among collectors of rare Indonesian fruit trees.

Cultivation: Provide full sun to light partial shade, warm tropical temperatures, and moderate humidity. Plant in deep, fertile, well-drained soil, as the species develops into a substantial tree over time and benefits from ample root space. Water regularly during establishment and dry periods, while avoiding prolonged waterlogging once the tree matures. This species is best suited to growers with garden space and a tropical or warm subtropical climate.

Nativity: Native to the island of Borneo, particularly South Kalimantan, Indonesia, where it traditionally grew within lowland tropical forests and swampy peat areas. It thrives in warm, humid lowland conditions with fertile, well-drained to seasonally moist soils.

Widely regarded as one of the most treasured fruit trees of Kalimantan, Mangifera casturi holds strong cultural and botanical value, serving as the official floral emblem of South Kalimantan province. Its intensely fragrant fruit, comparative rarity due to habitat loss, and status as a conservation priority contribute to its desirability among collectors of rare tropical fruit trees. Well-grown, fruiting specimens remain uncommon outside their native region, making acquisition of healthy plants notably worthwhile.
