Ideal for home gardeners, it requires minimal watering during summer and offers natural hair-straightening benefits, blending wellness and tradition effortlessly. ## Description Amla - goosberry, the tree is small to medium in size, reaching 8 to 18 m in height, with a crooked trunk and spreading branches. Ripening in autumn, the berries are harvested by hand after climbing to upper branches bearing the fruits. The taste of indian gooseberry is sour, bitter and astringent, and it is quite fibrous. In india, it is common to eat gooseberries steeped in salt water and turmeric to make the sour fruits palatable. It is also used to straighten hair. Religious significance, the tree is considered sacred by hindus as the vishnu is believed to dwell here. The tree is worshipped on amalaka ekadashi. In other hindu myths, aamla is said to be originated from the drops of amrit which spilled on earth accidentally, due to the fight of gods and demons after ksheera sagar manthan. And hence also this religious belief makes claims that it almost cures every disease and is also good in extending the longevity of life. Soil and climate, lightã‚â as well asã‚â medium heavy soils exceptã‚â purely sandy soil is ideal for amlaã‚â cultivation. The tree is well adopted to dry regions and can also be grown in moderate alkaline soils. Propagation, amlaã‚â is generally propagated by shield budding. Budding is done on one year old seedlings with buds collected from superior varieties yielding big sized fruits. Older trees or poor yielders can be changed into superior types by top working. Planting, the pits of 1 m3 are to be dug during may-june at a distance of 4. 5 m x 4. 5 m spacing and should be left for 15-20 days exposing to sunlight. Each pit should be filled with surface soil mixed with 15 kg farm yard manure and 0. 5 kg of phosphorus before planting the budded seedling. Irrigation, youngã‚â plants require watering during summer months at 15 days interval till they areã‚â fully established. Watering ofã‚â bearing plants is advised during summer months at bi-weekly interval. Harvesting, amla tree starts bearing after about 4-5 years of planting. ## Features - Live Amla - goosberry plant along with plastic pot. - The Tree Is Small To Medium In Size, Reaching 8 To 18 M In Height. - Taste Of Indian Gooseberry Is Sour, Bitter And Astringent, And It Is Quite Fibrous - It Is Can Also Be Used To Straighten Hair. - Irrigation, Young Plants Require Watering During Summer Months At 15 Days Interval Till They Areâ Fully Established ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Manufacturer | PLANTSGURU | | Country of Origin | India | | Item model number | pg-fruit-plants-amla-small | | Package Dimensions | 8 x 5 x 1 cm; 5 kg | | ASIN | B00T9SCWIC | ## Product Details - **Item Weight:** 5 Kilograms - **Size:** others - **Brand:** PLANTSGURU - **Package Weight:** 0.22 Pounds - **Number of Pieces:** 4 - **Produce sold as:** Pre-packaged - **Item Form:** Whole - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Net Quantity:** 1.00 count - **Manufacturer:** PLANTSGURU ## Images ![PLANTSGURU Amla (Small Size Fruit) Rai amla, Indian Goosberry, Phyllanthus acidus Plant - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61d9OgF3Z5L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: this plant grafted ?** A: Nice packing and plant is growing **Q: Can we grow in pots** A: Not in pots in some free area **Q: Is it grafted plant?** A: Ys. **Q: Is this small plant or fruit** A: Its a small plant when grown produces the sour fruit as shown on the picture. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐ Disgusting experience *by M***H on 27 February 2020* I was eagerly waiting for this plant and got a package like mentioned in pic.
