Garcinia Aristata
Garcinia bancana
Garcinia luzoniensis
Garcinia multiflora
Garcinia oblongifolia
Garcinia parvifolia
Garcinia portoricensis
Garcinia sp. nv. Cherapu-Brazilian
Garcinia puat
Garcinia amplexicaulis
Garcinia gnetoides
Garcinia afzelii
Garcinia punctata
Garcinia huillensis

they have cuban mangosteen (garcinia aristata) on tradewinds! best of luck on your search, maybe snag me a few if you run into some rare species  ;)

 I saw they had a good variety of garcinia seeds on there but wasn't sure of their viability. I'll give them a try if no one of the forum has any, thanks.

Going to buy a lot of seeds for some of these species if I find them so I can definitely share a few, don't hold your breath though took me 2 years to find cherapu.

If I ever see any on the list I'll do the same! And no worries, some things just take time. think tradewinds has oblongifolia too

TBH, I don't think I've had a garcinia seed that didn't germinate (kinda small sample size lol). They're reliable; they just take a while to do so
