Horsfieldia ampliformis is a small rainforest tree from Papua New Guinea, known only from a few lowland and foothill sites in the Sepik and Morobe regions. It is a wild forest species with no established record in cultivation, so it is not a plant home gardeners typically grow.
Horsfieldia ampliformis is a small rainforest tree in the family Myristicaceae, endemic to Papua New Guinea. It is only known to exist in the former Sepik Province (now East Sepik and Sandaun Provinces) and Morobe Province, where it grows in rainforests in the foothills and low areas of mountains.
