Nobletripe, is a user of the English wikipedia. I have been a user since 4 March, 2011. As this is my user page, I will not be too kind to those who vandalise it, nor will I be too happy if anyone edits my user page without first mentioning it on my talk page. If you wish to change something, please mention it here first. We'll try and come to some sort of an agreement,okay? I hover around a bit, and if I have any information on a topic to add, I will add it. If I find a topic that has no article, and I can find enough information about the said topic, I will create it.
The mangosteen (Garcinia mangostana) is a tropical evergreen tree with edible fruit native to Maritime Southeast Asia, from the Malay Peninsula to Borneo. It is grown mainly in Southeast Asia, southwest India, and other tropical areas such as Colombia, Puerto Rico and Florida, where the tree has been introduced. The fruit is sweet and tangy, juicy, somewhat fibrous, with fluid-filled vesicles (like the flesh of citrus fruits), with an inedible, deep reddish-purple colored rind (exocarp) when ripe. In each fruit, the fragrant edible white flesh that surrounds each seed is the endocarp, the inner layer of the ovary, and is roughly the same shape and size as a tangerine, about 4 to 6 centimetres (1.5 to 2.5 inches) in diameter. This photograph, which was focus-stacked from 22 individual images, shows two mangosteens, one whole, and the other halved to expose the endocarp.Photograph credit: Ivar Leidus
