Family: Clusiaceae

High Risk Traits:

• Thrives and could spread in regions with tropical climates
  
• Possibly naturalized in Australia (but no evidence in the Hawaiian Islands to date)
  
• Shade tolerant
  
• Tolerates many soil types
  
• Reproduces by seeds and possibly by root suckers
  
• Seeds dispersed by fruit eating animals, and through intentional cultivation
  
• Tolerates regular pruning and cutting

Low Risk Traits:

• No reports of invasiveness or negative impacts where cultivated
  
• Unarmed (no spines, thorns, or burrs)
  
• Edible fruit
  
• Reaches maturity in 7-10 years or longer
  
• Fruit and seeds relatively large and unlikely to be accidentally dispersed
  
• Seeds lose viability quickly (unlikely to form persistent seed bank)
