1 Amla Starter Plant 12-24 Inch Live Indian Gooseberry Tree (Emblica officinalis)

The Amla starter plant, also known as Indian Gooseberry (Emblica officinalis), is a tropical to subtropical fruit tree prized for its small, tart, nutrient-rich berries and graceful, feathery foliage. This live starter plant arrives at 12 to 24 inches tall, ready to begin establishing in a sunny garden or a large container. Amla trees are fast growers with an upright, spreading habit and make an attractive edible addition to warm-climate landscapes.

Indian Gooseberry is a rewarding choice for home growers interested in fruiting trees, edible landscaping, and traditional fruit gardens. With adequate warmth, sunlight, and moisture, these starter plants can develop into productive small to medium trees over time.
