Lvs. broadly ovate to elliptic-oblong, obtuse or obtusely acuminate, 2-3 in. long, often appearing as if in whorls of 4: fls. 6-10 in a head, with 2-4 bracts of variable size under the head; calices connate at the base; petals broadly ovate or orbicular, less than 2 lines long; ovary 3-loculed; ovules several to each locule.—According to Von Mueller's Select Extra-tropical Plants, this tree attains a height of 200 ft., with a trunk often 30 ft. in circumference; it is of quick growth and well adapted for a shade tree. The wood is very durable and almost fireproof and is valuable for piles, railway sleepers, and shipbuilding. It takes a high polish and is used for flooring and cabinetwork. Offered in S. Calif.
