Strychnos millepunctata is a shrub or small tree from the lowland forests of West Africa, known mainly from Côte d'Ivoire and rarely cultivated. It is a wild species of conservation interest rather than a common garden plant, so care is best guided by its tropical forest origin.
Strychnos millepunctata is a species of shrub or small tree in the Loganiaceae family. It is endemic to Côte d'Ivoire and grows in the lowland Eastern Guinean forests where it is threatened by habitat loss. S. millepunctata has been investigated for pharmacological properties of its alkaloids.
