Mangifera indica , commonly known as mango , is an evergreen[ 3] species of flowering plant in the family Anacardiaceae .[ 4] It is a large fruit tree , capable of growing to a height and width of 30 m (100 ft).[ 5] There are two distinct genetic populations in modern mangoes – the "Indian type" and the "Southeast Asian type".[ 6]
