About this species
Endemic to South Kalimantan, the kasturi is a small, intensely aromatic mango now classified Extinct in the Wild — it persists only where people have planted it.
Its story is a stark example of what YKRI works to prevent. Gardens safeguard surviving trees and study reintroduction.
