Clusia rosea 'Princess'

Clusia rosea Princess is the perfect houseplant for novices who are anxious or for folks who are busy but yet want some lush indoor foliage that doesn't require much maintenance. However, plants grow quickly, and if they are often re-potted, little window sill examples can eventually reach heights of several feet. This sturdy tropical shrub has attractive, 6-inch long, deep green, leathery leaves. The Autograph Tree, which is native to the Caribbean, can grow off of trees and potentially strangle its host. Thankfully, it won't do this inside! The moniker The Autograph Tree comes from the fact that the leaves are so thick that you can carve your name on them and watch them develop. The leaves were originally used as inexpensive playing cards in the Caribbean and were etched with numbers and patterns. Maximum height: 1.5m (60in). Spread: 60cm (24in).Plant height and spread are seasonal. As a result, we list by pot size rather than plant size.The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
