Gustavia superba is a striking tree native to the rainforests of Central and South America, particularly in regions like the Amazon. Known for its large, fragrant, and vibrant pink flowers, it is often referred to as the "majestic flower tree." The tree produces impressive blooms that are not only visually stunning but also emit a sweet, pleasant fragrance, attracting pollinators like bees and butterflies. Gustavia superba thrives in tropical climates with high humidity and well-drained soils, making it ideal for rainforest environments. While it is not commonly cultivated outside of its native habitat, it is sought after for ornamental purposes due to its beauty and resilience. The tree also holds cultural significance in some indigenous communities for its use in local rituals and medicine. Additionally, the fruit of Gustavia superba is edible, with a soft, fibrous pulp that is mildly sweet and tangy, though it is not widely consumed outside its native regions. In the Amazon, it is sometimes eaten fresh and valued for its unique taste​
