The 6-month-old "tiny" coconut tree, 40cm tall, has flowered and is about to bear fruit.

Mr. Nguyen Quang Dinh (living in Ward 1, Ca Mau City, Ca Mau Province), the owner of the "tiny" coconut tree, said he bought this coconut tree from a resident in Ca Mau.

More than 6 months ago, the coconut tree sprouted and grew normally for the first 3 months. Recently, the coconut tree suddenly flowered and is about to bear fruit.

According to Mr. Dinh, this coconut variety can mutate. When he bought it, he found it more difficult to take care of than other types of trees because he found the coconut tree grew very slowly.

"I'm also watching how it will grow," Mr. Dinh shared while displaying the coconut tree at Ca Mau flower market during the 2024 Lunar New Year.

Many people in Ca Mau were surprised when they saw the coconut tree at the Tet flower market because they had never seen such a unique coconut tree before.

"There are also quite a few strange coconuts like coconuts with many shoots, but a tiny coconut tree that already has flowers and fruits is rare. Maybe this is a mutant coconut," said a resident of Ca Mau City.
