Description: About Mamoncillo Also, known as Spanish lime, mamoncillo resembles small lime sold in clusters, it doesn’t belong to the citrus family and is more like indehiscent fruit (fruit that has hard outer shell and tough to open). It tastes between lychee to lime. It grows up to 25 meters (85 feet) tall and spread vigorously. The fruit looks like small unripe mango, and it resembles the texture of a boiled egg: hard covering from outside and soft pulpy fruit inside and seed in the center. Planting a Mamoncillo Tree Proper planting is one of the most important steps in successfully establishing and growing a strong, productive tree. The first step is to choose a healthy nursery tree. Commonly, nursery mamoncillo trees are grown in 3-gallon (11-liter) containers and trees stand 2 to 4 ft (0.6–0.9 m) from the soil media. Large trees in smaller containers should be avoided because the root system may be "root bound." This means all the available space in the container has been filled with roots to the point that the tap root is growing along the edge of the container in a circular fashion. Root bound root systems may not grow properly once planted in the ground. Inspect the tree for insect pests and diseases, and inspect the trunk of the tree for wounds and constrictions. Select a healthy tree and water it regularly in preparation for planting in the ground.
