The mango tree, scientifically known as Mangifera indica, is a tropical fruit tree belonging to the Anacardiaceae family. It is highly regarded for its delicious, juicy, and aromatic fruits. Originating in South Asia, the mango tree is now widely cultivated in various regions around the world, including tropical and subtropical climates.

Mango trees are known for their large size and can reach heights of up to 100 feet (30 meters) or more, with a dense and spreading canopy. The leaves are dark green and leathery, providing a lush and attractive appearance. Mango trees are deciduous, meaning they shed their leaves during the dry season before regrowing them during the rainy season.
