Calophyllum is an evergreen tree in the Clusiaceae grown as a specimen or for coastal planting. It favours a south-facing, sheltered position and performs best in full sun on neutral, loamy, well-drained soil. In the UK it is frost-tender (H1b) and is therefore suited to a conservatory, greenhouse or the warmest, most sheltered outdoor sites. The tree shows garden interest through spring and summer.
