The wood is hard and said to resemble teak. The plant possesses 
some of the characters of Breonia, some of Cephalanthus, and some of 
Adina. I have not seen the fruit; it may prove to be indehiscent. 
Although there is much variation in the leaves, peduncles, bracts, and 
especially in the calyx-lobes, I have been unable to group the specimens 
into distinct species.
