Campnosperma auriculatum is a rainforest tree of the Cashew Family (Anacardiaceae) native to the East Indies and Southeast Asia.[1][2] The sapling tree has very large leaves up to 6 feet (1.8 metres) in length by up to 15 inches (380 millimetres) wide.[3] The leaves of mature trees are oblanceolate and about 30 inches (760 millimetres) long, forming a tight circle at the ends of the branches. The flowers are yellowish, in small panicles, forming reddish berries upon pollination.
