Clusia Rosea “Autograph Tree”

The Autograph Tree, also known as Clusia rosea “Princess”, is a small shrub to full-sized tree, the plant has large, slightly fleshy leaves that grow in pairs. If you lightly etch words into the upper layer of the Clusia rosea leaf, the pattern will remain and grow with the plant – people sometimes sign their names (hence autograph tree) on the leaves or write messages that remain until the leaf dies and falls off. Mature trees have attractive pinkish-white flowers and can produce fruit, sometimes called balsam apples, but these are poisonous. However, they are unlikely to occur on indoor plants.

All our potted plants come in compostable coir pots.
