The jackfruit tree has many benefits, but it cannot be planted anywhere to bring good luck. Many people think that planting fruit trees anywhere is fine because they are just for fruit and shade, but in fact, the planting location should be considered to ensure good luck for the owner, especially the position of the exit and the door of the house.
In feng shui, the door of the house is where luck and prosperity enter the house, so if you plant trees right at the doorway, it will block the way and hinder the flow of good energy into the house. The path is not open, and the light cannot shine into the house. Jackfruit is also a large tree, so its large foliage will block the view if planted in front of the door, making the house lack natural energy and appear gloomy. The root system of the tree can penetrate the wall of the house, causing cracks and damaging the painted surface. The fallen jackfruit leaves will make the facade lose its aesthetic appeal.
