Magnistipula conrauana

Magnistipula conrauana is a rainforest tree from Cameroon in the Chrysobalanaceae family, known mainly from wild populations and rarely grown in cultivation. It is not a common garden or houseplant, so growing it is largely a matter of replicating wet tropical lowland forest conditions.
