This plant loses its leaves in the month of 
November, and in December the flowers appear. 
The tree is known amongst the inhabitants by 
the name of Kari, affording one of the best 
kinds of Gum Kino. Where an incision is 
made, the juice flows out, at first of an extremely 
pale red colour, and in a very liquid state ; but 
it soon coagulates, becoming of a deep blood 
red hue, and so remarkably brittle, that its col- 
lection is attended with some difficulty.
