Goniothalamus maewongensis is a small tree in the custard apple family (Annonaceae), native to mountain rainforest in northern Thailand. It is not a commonly cultivated plant, and the sources give no growing guidance, so care details below are general and tentative.
Goniothalamus maewongensis is a species of flowering plant in the family Annonaceae. It is a tree native to northern Thailand. Richard M.K. Saunders and Piya Chalermglin, who first formally described the species, named it after the Mae Wong National Park in Thailand where the type specimen was collected.
