The big and 250 year old mango tree at Peruvanthanam, near Peerumade, Idukki, Kerala, India.


I never knew of this big and 250 year old mango tree at Peruvanthanam, neat Peerumade, Idukki, Kerala, India, even though I was staying here with family for 2 years.

This tree now yearly gives mangoes worth Rs. 30,000 besides offering shelter to birds and shade to animals and humans including school children ..

A great tree and GREAT history, still alive, though most of the branches are wilted and on the verge of going down .. .
