An Old Mango Tree at Alto Da Santo Antonio, Itaparica, Brazil. 
Although a native of Asia the Mango (Mangifera indica) 
was Introduced into South America so early that giant 
trees of it are often found there. Few fruit trees reach 
a larger size and bear fruit longer than the mango. The 
Illustration is of a seedling tree but very old grafted 
trees occur in India and certain of the Philippine vari- 
eties of delicious quality come true to seed. Photo No.
