Hi ! 
Latest beauty coming to my garden. Would love some advice to find it the best spot.

How tolerant is it to acidic soil ? What is the best sun exposure ? 
Would love to see yours

They like a good shady or filtered light. Use dolomite when planting

Pelagodoxa Henryana. A true beauty. What amaze me the most are the seeds. They look like a sphere made of multiple hexagones with a sweet peach perfume.

One of my favorites so always happy to take a couple of new photos of one of mine.

The leaf underside looks more silver than this photo suggests.

I have 3 of this species in shade, but will plant 4 more in part shade soon. 

I have seen one in PR in almost full sun fruiting but the leaves weren’t as pretty as mine. 
 

I probably have acid soil but have not tested it. 
 

Ox rhino beetles think it is delicious but only one has been killed as I use barriers and imidocloprid now.

Thank you ! It really helps to decide where to plant it. 
So I went for partial shade. Getting direct light from the sunrise, and in full shade at 9-10 am.
