A striking form of Chambeyronia macrocarpa that has a dark green crownshaft and trunk intensively streaked with bright yellow to a most amazing and beautiful effect that is somewhat reminiscent of the skin of a watermelon. This form originates in a remote mountain valley in central New Caledonia. Without exception, all plants here show the same variegation, and their offspring can be expected to look exactly the same. Otherwise, it grows just like the regular Chambeyronia and produces the same beautiful red new leaf.
