I have a Lemondrop Mangosteen growing in a 5 Gallon pot here in S.D. growing well, about 24" now, it gets a few hours of direct sunlight during the day. I have been trying to get my hands on the purple variety Garcinia mangostana, I have tried by seed twice, but the viability of seeds is only 4-5 days, 3 weeks maximum if kept moist. I have heard rumours that there is one person with purple Mangostan in the country but they either wont or cant distribute seeds. In P.R. they are available for sale as potted plants but seeds they are keeping for their own stock as plants are still young. If anyone knows where I can get Garcinia mangostana ( purple ) please post or send me a PM, thanks.
