Garcinia sp. “Camborgiana” Vermelha — Rare Delicious Red Ribbed Fruit (September Pre-Sale)

Description

Garcinia sp. “Camborgiana” Vermelha — rare delicious red form

This striking collector accession is maintained under the source name Garcinia sp. “Camborgiana” Vermelha. Clayton selected it as a tasty, worthwhile fruit accession, combining good eating quality with extraordinary appearance.

The mature fruit is red to coral-red, with deep longitudinal ribs / lobes. Cut-fruit photographs show vivid pink to red fleshy tissue around a very large seed. The contrast between the red exterior, pink interior and unusual shape makes this an exceptionally distinctive Garcinia for collectors.

• Eating quality: selected by the collector as a tasty / desirable edible Garcinia.
• Fruit color: red to coral-red at maturity.
• Interior: striking pink-red flesh visible in the opened fruit.
• Fruit architecture: deeply ribbed / lobed, large and highly ornamental.
• Collector value: extremely scarce accession with only a tiny quantity available.

Identification note

“Camborgiana” is retained as the collector/source working name. The exact botanical species has not yet been independently confirmed, so we list it as Garcinia sp. The working name is not presented as a formal scientific identification.

Germination and early care

Fresh Garcinia seeds are moisture-sensitive and should be sown promptly rather than intentionally dried.

• Sow in a loose, organic and well-draining substrate.
• Keep the medium evenly moist, never permanently waterlogged.
• Maintain warm conditions, approximately 24–30°C / 75–86°F.
• Use bright filtered light and protect young seedlings from intense afternoon sun.
• If a seed has already started to germinate, handle the emerging root very carefully.
