Wendlandia angustifolia is a rare tree in the coffee family, endemic to Tamil Nadu in southern India and once thought extinct before its rediscovery in 1998. It is a wild forest species with little cultivation history, so there is no established growing guide for home gardens.
Wendlandia angustifolia is a species of plant in the family Rubiaceae. It is endemic to Tamil Nadu, India. The species was presumed to be extinct until 1998, when it was rediscovered after a gap of 81 years near its previously known natural habitat, during an inventory of threatened plants of Kalakkad Mundantharai Tiger Reserve, Tamil Nadu.
