Key Features:

Unique Tropical Flavor: The Lemon Drop Mangosteen bears sweet and tart fruit that is highly addictive. The taste falls somewhere between pineapple and citrus, making it a refreshing treat.
Rare and Exotic: Native to Northwestern regions of South America, through Central America and Mexico, this tree is a rare find that adds exotic beauty and flavor to your garden.
Fast-Growing and Adaptable: Unlike other mangosteen varieties, the Lemon Sour Mangosteen is fast-growing and adaptable, making it a great addition to various landscapes.

Growing and Care Instructions:

Soil and Watering: Plant in well-drained, fertile soil that retains moisture. Regular watering is essential, especially during the growing season.
Sunlight Requirements: Thrives in full sun to partial shade, making it versatile for various growing conditions.
Fertilization: Use a balanced fertilizer during the growing season to encourage vigorous growth and fruit production.
Pruning: Prune to maintain shape and remove any diseased or dead branches, which helps improve air circulation and reduces the risk of disease.
Cold Sensitivity: Mangosteen is very sensitive to cold weather. To increase your success chances, we recommend growing it in a container, so you can provide shade and protection from cold weather.

Growth and Adaptability:

Climate Requirements: Because the tree is truly tropical and cold-sensitive, the best region to grow mangosteen is South Florida, especially Miami-Dade. The tree can be injured if the air temperature falls below 40°F.
Container Growing: Due to its sensitivity to cold, growing the Lemon Sour Mangosteen in a container allows you to move it indoors during cooler weather, ensuring its survival and health.
Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond its enticing fruits, this tree offers ornamental value, featuring attractive foliage that enhances the visual appeal of your outdoor space.

Propagation: This tree is propagated from seedlings, ensuring robust and healthy growth.
