Mango

Mango trees make great shade trees. They
are erect and fast growing with sufficient heat, and the canopy can be broad
and rounded, or more upright, with a relatively slender crown. It can grow
to 65 ft. in Asia. Some specimens have been known to be over 300 years old
and still fruiting. In deep soil the taproot descends to a depth of 20 ft,
and the profuse, wide-spreading feeder roots also send down many anchor
roots which penetrate for several feet.
