Hey There! Cycas is the type genus and the only genus recognised in the family Cycadaceae. 

1. This is a saprophytic plant body that attains a height of 8 to 15 feet or more and appears like a small palm.

2. The plant body is differentiated into roots, stem and leaves.

3. Due to the presence of endophytic algae, its roots become swollen and appear like a coral and hence named coralloid.

The mango is one of the most cultivated fruits in tropical areas of the world, it is native to the South Asian areas of Eastern India, Burma and the Andaman Islands.

Buddhist monks are believed to have introduced the mango to Malaysia and eastern Asia around the 5th century B.C. Legend has it that the God Buddha found tranquillity and meditated under the cool shade of a mango tree.

The evergreen mango tree can grow as high as 35 - 40 m (115–130 ft).They are a long living tree with some specimens having been known to still bear fruit after 300 years.

The flowers of a mango tree are small and white with five petals, and the fruit takes between three and six months to ripen.

Mango fruit can come in various shapes, size and colour including yellow, orange, red and green.
