Intsia is a genus of two tropical timber trees in the pea family, Fabaceae, which can grow up to 40 to 45 m tall. They are not commonly grown as garden or houseplants, and growing them is mainly a matter of tropical forestry or large landscape planting.
Intsia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Fabaceae. It includes two species which range from eastern Africa and Madagascar to India, Indochina, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, northern Australia, and the south Pacific. They are trees which grow up to 40 (–45) meters tall, often buttressed, evergreen and unarmed. Typical habitat is humid tropical lowland forest including coastal forest on sand, rain forest, mangrove fringes and tidal river mouths, and occasionally inland on hills.
