PTELEOCARPA LAMPONGA

I planted 3 of them at the Flora Stitches but I have never posted any information on them before. So I decided to do the latter before I move on.

There wasn't much information on the tree that can be found on the web, and the ripe seeds are eaten as a flavouring.

NB on 11 Oct 15: This looks different from the Tembusu tikus that I now know off.
