Ehretia dicksonii is a medium to large tree from subtropical Asia, grown mainly as an ornamental for its rough leaves and small yellow fruits. It is a garden tree rather than a common houseplant, and it needs space and mild conditions to do well.
Ehretia dicksonii is a tree that is native to Asia and cultivated as an ornamental plant.
It grows to 15 metres and has leaves that are 8–25 cm (3.1–9.8 in) long and 4–15 cm (1.6–5.9 in) wide. These are obovate, ovate or elliptic in shape and rough to the touch. The bases are cuneate or rounded, the tips pointed and the edges serrate. It has white or pale yellow flowers that appear in terminal cymes. These are followed by yellow fruits that are between 1 and 1.5 cm in diameter.
