Planchonella glauca is a tree from the wet tropical forests of northern New Caledonia, grown mainly for its species interest rather than as a common garden plant. Little cultivation information exists, so it is best treated as a shaded, humid tropical tree.
Planchonella glauca is a species of plant in the family Sapotaceae. It is endemic to New Caledonia. As with other species in the same genus it possesses stamens that are located below (and rarely in) the tube orifice; a multi-seeded fruit, as well as foliaceous cotyledons embedded in endosperm.
