Plants grow from seeds, which contain the genetic blueprint for a new organism. Seeds require the right conditions—water, soil, and sunlight—to germinate. As they develop, plants produce oxygen, food, and habitats, sustaining life on Earth.
The Lakpura® Wellakolomban Mango Plant (Vellai Kolamban) is a cherished Sri Lankan mango cultivar renowned for its small, oval-oblong fruits with greenish-yellow to dull yellow skin and aromatic, fiberless golden-yellow flesh. Traditionally grown in Sri Lanka’s wet and intermediate zones, this variety thrives in full sunlight with regular watering and begins bearing fruit within 2–3 years from a budded plant. Known for its rich, tropical, Indochinese-type flavor, the Wellakolomban mango features a polyembryonic seed, allowing more than one embryo per seed and ensuring reliable propagation. Ideal for home gardens and small farms, the plant delivers fruit almost year-round when properly cared for with well-drained soil, balanced fertilization every 4–6 weeks, and consistent watering during dry seasons. The result is a delicious, aromatic mango harvest steeped in Sri Lankan tradition and flavor.
