Size. —According to Mueller, this tree attains a height of 80 feet, but it is 
usually much smaller. 
Habitat. —This tree is, in Australia, confined to New South Wales and 
Queensland. In our State it occurs from the Richmond River (its southern range 
is not yet known), and in Queensland it extends from end to end of the State, in 
the coast districts in brush forests. It is also found in Ceram and other localities 
in the Malay Archipelago. 
Propagation. —From seed. It is a shapely, handsome shade tree which is 
only suitable for the warmer parts of the State, in rich brush soil, and where it can 
be well sheltered. It is, however, well worthy of care being taken with it. •
