Tree, 25-35 ft. high, with rather slender branches and smooth, dark brown bark, the young branchlets dark- colored, slightly pubescent: lvs. oval or oblong-oval, 1 1/2-3 in. long, acuminate, the base acute, deep green, thickly chartaceous, smooth, almost glossy above, puberulent below, sparsely pellucid-punctate, midrib prominent below: peduncles axillary on the young branchlets, 1-fld.; petals 5, suborbicular; stigma peltate; ovary 5-locular: frs. globose, small, sour. Costa Rica, Guatemala, and probably other parts of Cent. Amer.—Of comparatively recent intro. into the U. S. It grows well in S. Fla., but seems too tender for most parts of S. Calif. It may succeed in protected locations. The frs. are considered especially valuable for jelly-making, because of their acidity. A plant which has been disseminated in this country under the name of P. laurifolium, intro. from Trinidad, appears to be this species. ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
