Garcinia dulcis (Common names: Mundu, Rata fruit, Yellow mangosteen)


This bright yellow tropical fruit is a lesser-known cousin of the mangosteen. It forms a small to medium tree with glossy leaves and a compact canopy. The fruit is round, smooth-skinned, and yellow when ripe, with a tangy-sweet pulp often used in drinks, preserves, or eaten fresh if fully ripe. The tree is ornamental, productive, and suitable for subtropical climates like Perth with protection from frost. Self-fertile and attractive to pollinators, it grows well in fertile, well-drained soil.
