Argyrodendron actinophyllum |
Argyrodendron actinophyllum is a large rainforest tree, native to eastern Australia . Common names include black booyong, blackjack, blush tulip oak, crowsfoot elm and Mackay tulip oak.[1] The heartwood is coloured pink-brown. One of the most distinctive features of Argyrodendron actinophyllum is the large deep green leaves that radiate out from central stems – hence the specific epithet actino 'ray', phyllum 'leaf'. Also the trunks form large characteristic buttresses.
