About the Product

Governor’s plum (Flacourtia indica) is a hardy, thorny shrub or small tree valued for its small reddish-purple fruits that are sweet-tart when ripe. It grows well in warm tropical to subtropical climates with ideal temperatures between 20°C and 35°C and tolerates heat and short dry periods but not severe frost. In regions like Kerala, the warm, humid climate with moderate rainfall supports good growth and fruiting. The plant prefers well-drained sandy or loamy soils and adapts well to coastal and dry areas once established.
