at Tu Phap and at the base of Mt. Davi, types). 
The tree, which appears to be cultivated in fishing villages in Tonkin, is 
deciduous and becomes quite bare in August, when buds from the old leaf- 
sears develop into abundant racemes of white flowers. Later other buds in 
similar positions give rise to leafy shoots. The leaves remain until after the 
fruit is mature in the autumn.
