### [v1.c14.152](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.malalasekera-1937.v1.c14.152)

Gaṇḍamba.—The mango-tree, at the gate of Sāvatthi, under which the Buddha performed the Yamaka-pāṭihāriya (\*q.v.\*). The king’s gardener, Gaṇḍa, while on his way to the palace to give the king a ripe mango-fruit from the palace gardens, saw the Buddha going on his alms-rounds and offered him the mango. The Buddha ate it immediately, and gave the seed to Ānanda to be planted by the gardener at the city-gate. A tree of one hundred cubits sprouted forth at once, covered with fruit and flowers. At the foot of this tree Vissakamma, by the order of Sakka, built a pavilion of the seven kinds of precious things.¹
