Evergreen tree and fruit ( Mangifera indica ) of the sumac , or cashew, family, one of the most important and widely cultivated fruits of the tropical world.
The yellow to orange fruit is juicy, distinctively spicy, and a rich source of vitamins A, C, and D. Mango fruit varies in shape, colour, and size from ovoid to long, from vividly red and yellow to dull green, and from plum-to melon-size. It is used in Theravada Buddhist ceremonies. The long-lived tree reaches 5060 ft (1518 m) and has long, lance-shaped leaves and clusters of small, pinkish, fragrant flowers.
