The Achichiru Tree, Garcinia humilis, often referred to as "Achacha," is a rare and tropical fruiting tree native to Bolivian rain forests. Valued for its attractive appearance and manageable size, this small evergreen tree features dense, glossy green foliage and a compact, symmetrical growth habit that makes it suitable for both home gardens and patio container growing. During the warmer seasons, the tree produces small, star-shaped white flowers that eventually give way to oval, orange-skinned fruits. These fruits are highly prized for their tart-sweet flavor and refreshing pulp, often compared to a blend of mangosteen and citrus. Well-suited for warm, humid climates, the Achichiru Tree thrives in subtropical and tropical environments where it can receive ample sunlight and consistent moisture. It is a slow to moderate grower that forms a tidy canopy with minimal pruning required. With proper care, the tree develops into a striking specimen with ornamental value even before it begins fruiting. Its adaptability to container growth allows gardeners in cooler zones to overwinter the plant indoors or in a greenhouse. Whether planted in the ground or grown in a large pot, the Achichiru Tree makes a unique and rewarding addition to any rare fruit collection or tropical landscape.
