Garcinia

Brief Description

The image shows a young plant with elliptical to ovate leaves that are light green, suggesting new growth or perhaps some nutrient deficiency. The overall structure appears to be a small shrub or tree seedling, typical of many Garcinia species.

Care Instructions

Garcinia plants generally prefer tropical or subtropical climates. They thrive in well-draining, rich soil and require consistent moisture, especially when young. Most species prefer full sun to partial shade. Protection from strong winds and frost is beneficial. Fertilize regularly during the growing season with a balanced fertilizer. Pruning may be necessary to maintain shape or encourage branching.
