Dipterocarpus elongatus is a large forest tree of the dipterocarp family native to western Malesia, growing in primary and secondary forest and freshwater swamp forest. It is a timber and forest species rather than a garden plant, so it needs a large, moist, tropical site.
Dipterocarpus elongatus is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae found in Indonesia (Kalimantan and Sumatra), Malaysia (Peninsular Malaysia and Sarawak) and Singapore. This large tree occurs in secondary and primary forest, as well as in freshwater swamp forest.
