MORINDA ANGUSTIFOLIA : 4 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (1)

Attaching a collage of Morinda angustifolia (ASHO/ DARHHARIDRA/ ASU-GOCH).

I saw this plant for the first time at Tezpor in a bamboo grove. That was in 2002. When I saw it at Cooch Behar in 2006, I was thrilled. But that plant disappeared  in two years time. But I saw it in a new location. Now I find that missing. I have located the plant in some bamboo groves recently. I don’t know how long these will survive..

I do not know what the normal life span of a morinda is. I have seen some in Narendrapur, RK mission gardens, but they were struggling. I am not sure what is the ideal growth requirements. may be some horticulturists or biologists botanists studying  fruit trees can fore sure provide the information. i am sending to all who i think would be helpful or knowledgeable


They are perennials. They live for more than 20 years as I have observed in many places. The trees would have disappeared due to  human intervention .


Ah, thanks. so its not a very long lived tree. i know of some mango trees that are around for much longer than my parents on this earth. that would be more than a century. so noni tree is short lived. and may be they don’t like water-logging. just like some sesbania trees that my gardener said once: “they don’t like wet feet.”

my sesbania died from waterlogging.

I really do not know how many years these trees live. I have just stated that I have observed them in living condition for more than 20 years.  They continued to live even after.  Perhaps they may live longer.


oh. my mistake. so horticultrists need to chip in. i want to know
