gamboge tree
A gamboge tree refers to any tree belonging to various tropical evergreen species, especially of the genus Garcinia, found in Southeast Asia, and known for producing a yellow resin from their bark known as gamboge. The gamboge resin is traditionally used as both an artist's pigment because of its brilliant yellow color, and in medicine for its purgative properties. The most common type of gamboge tree is Garcinia gummi-gutta, also known as the Malabar tamarind, which also produces a fruit renowned for its health benefits.
