Dillenia reticulata is a deciduous rainforest tree in the family Dilleniaceae.[1] It is native to the Malay Peninsula, Borneo and Sumatra.
The species typically grows to 36m (118feet) high and about 1.27m (04.17feet) thick, with a maximum recorded height of 63m (207feet).[2] The young tree has a very different appearance, palm-like with a terminal rosette of huge, wavy-edged leaves up to 1.27m (04.17feet) or more in length and about 41cm (16inches) wide.[3] Adult leaves much smaller, to as little as 10cmby10cmcm (00inchesby00inchescm). The underside of the leaves is fuzzy. The flowers are five-petaled, yellow and about eight centimeters (three inches) in width. The trees have prop roots similar to those of mangroves.[2]
