I want to introduce to you my photo about my plants. Checking out my plants today and surprisingly my Wild Mangosteen, Santol, Cotton Fruit is will becoming a tree soon! I thought it didn't survive when I put it in the pot because I broke some of the roots but then I still gave it try and yes it survived and hopefully grow well.
