Curiosity about me
The important moments in your tree's life.
Let's start with introductions
Lapsi is the local name of a tree also known as the Nepalese Plum. Capable of growing up to 20 meters high, it is widespread in various Asian countries, but in Nepal it has its ideal habitat. It makes edible fruits about 3 cm long with a whitish pulp and a greenish skin. They are used to make pickles, jams, candies.
Meaning
Goodness
Its fruits, besides being used to make sweets and candies, also have medicinal properties. They are good in every sense!
How much CO2 I’ll absorb
My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*
Current absorption
- 100 kg
2019
0 kg
2029
-200 kg
* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.
