I thought intermedia and brasiliensis were the lemondrop mangosteen and superior lemondrop mangosteen respectively-I am not an expert but FLNative on here sells them as 2 different fruits and they definitely were distinct when I got them from him
That is great news! Nice job NissanVersa!!Re identity: Then what is g. intermedia?I concur with elouicious, understood them as being different: g. intermedia is lemon drop mangosteen, and g. brasiliensis is superior lemon drop. Have them both and others, they appear distinct even amonst similar looking garcinias.

Same species, but different varieties. Different types but same species, kind of like apples with many different types but same species?
