Actinodaphne pruinosa is a tall rainforest tree in the laurel family, native to Malaysia, Singapore and Borneo. It is not a garden or houseplant, so the key to working with it is its need for warm, humid, wet tropical conditions.
Actinodaphne pruinosa is a species of plant in the family Lauraceae. It is a tree which grows 18 to 20 metres tall. It is native to Peninsular Malaysia, Singapore, and Borneo.
It grows in primary and secondary lowland and montane rain forests, and in peat swamp and kerangas forests, from 90 to 4,000 metres elevation.
