Gustavia augusta, known as ‘Membrillo’, is a very attractive shrub to small tree in the Lecythidaceae family, native to Guyana and Amazonian Brazil. The rich dark green leaves have softly serrated edges. The attractive leaves form a frame to the amazing, sweetly scented flowers which have large, pale pink to white petals encircling the crown of dark pink and yellow stamens. ‘Membrillo’ should be grown in moist soil with exposure to morning sun.
