Apoplanesia paniculata is a shrub or small tree up to about 15 m tall from seasonally dry tropical forests of southern Mexico to Costa Rica. It is rarely grown outside its native range, so little cultivation guidance exists.
Apoplanesia paniculata is a flowering plant belonging to the family Fabaceae.
Apoplanesia paniculata occurs from southern Mexico south into Costa Rica. The GBIF map displaying locations of observations of the species indicate that in Mexico two main populations centers are apparent, one in the northern Yucatan Peninsula and the other in the southwestern region on the Pacific side.
