Qualea multiflora is a species of tree in the family Vochysiaceae.[1][2]

Trees in this species can grow up to 6 m tall.[3] The species has hairy leaves and extrafloral nectaries which possibly help reduce herbivory.[4] Q. multiflora gets pollinated by bees in he uses like Xylocopa and Centris.[5]

The species is native to neotropics[1] in countries like Bolivia, Brazil , Paraguay, and Peru.[6] The species naturally grows in acid soils.[7]
