madronos are round and bright yellow with prickly skin.
13 years old Any sign of fruit setting? What is the difference between Madruno and Acuminata?!
Garcinia madruno generally has a more roundish shape, there's a few cv. of this documented. Leaves are larger than
G. acuminata.
Garcinia acuminata fruit is pointier or
acute as per the epithet of this species. I have also seen this referred to as
Rheedia bentamerianaAnother one of the specimens I found was
Rheedia sp. 'Possum 2' /
Rheedia acuminata, which was presumably progeny from Bill Whitman's famous charichuela from Iquitos, Peru (1963).
This species can also hybridize with other Garcinia resulting in different colored fruit.
