Mosannona garwoodiae (syn. Mosannona garwoodii, orth. var.) is a rainforest tree endemic to Panama and belonging to the custard-apple family Annonaceae. [1] The laurel-like leaves have a unique color, the underside being described as "sky blue". The flowers have about twenty carpels each developing into a separate berry. The species was discovered circa 2010 on Barro Colorado Island by Dr. Nancy Garwood. [3]
