About this plant

Guioa is a characterful native tree that brings height, shade and a strong natural presence to the garden. Small cream flowers are followed by lobed capsules that split to expose dark seeds with fleshy arils. It works well as a feature or canopy tree, contributing shade and long-term structure to a habitat-focused garden.
