African Imbe Mangosteen - Garcinia livingstonei
Wellspring Premium Series
+ Free Shipping
It's no surprise that Queen Victoria offered riches in exchange for anyone who could bring her a Mangosteen. Known as the queen of fruits, African Imbe Mangosteens are creamy, antioxidant-rich, and truly hard to come by. Hailing from East Africa, African Imbe Mangosteen produces small, golden-yellow fruits with creamy, pale flesh offering a subtle sweetness and custard-like texture. You won't find Mangosteens in your grocery store since they aren't produced commercially. So grow them at home if you are seeking a rare, specialized fruit for your garden.
Our African Imbe Mangosteen comes in a Premium 3/4-QT. pot which gives you a nice head start on planting.
• Average mature height: 10-20 feet in a container (up to 80 in the landscape)

New Premium & Supreme Plants will release each Friday.
