Hardiness: USDA Zone 10 to 13Sun Exposure: Full Sun/Light shadeFoliage: EvergreenTime To Fruit: 4-6 years You are purchasing one 3-6'' tall (pot height is not included) Garcinia Livingstonei (Imbe, African Mangosteen) Seedling Tree Starter Plant in 2.5'' square pot.Imbe is an evergreen small tree. The leaves are borne in opposite pairs or whorls of 3–4, each leaf blue-green, oval, 2-4 inch long and 1–2.5 inch broad. The flowers are produced in clusters on the stems. The fruit is a small, bright, orange, thin-skinned berry 1-2 inch diameter, with one single large seed; the small yield of edible fruit is pleasantly sweet, yet acidic, but also containing a latex. A traditional food plant in Africa. Cold hardy to 26°F. Season: June-August. The rather tender skin tends to prevent packing and shipping of the fruit, but it deserves to be more widely cultivated as a home fruit. Pollination: Imbes have separate sexes, so this means you have to have both a male and a female tree for good fruit production. Isolated female trees sometimes produce a few fruit, but they are quite small and for optimum production it's always best to have a male tree or a male branch grafted onto the female tree. Can be grown as container culture because of it's slow growth. Trees grown from seeds are not identical to the parent tree.Grown in Southern FloridaPictures are from my garden of the actual plants and actual fruits that I grew.Shipped via USPS First Class or Priority mail.
