| Reference caliper grades | 30–120 mm in the reference grades below. Final grade and availability are confirmed on enquiry. Caliper is measured 1 m above soil level. |
| Root-ball diameter | Up to approximately 65 cm for large trees; confirm for the selected grade. |

Landscape use
Narrow streets, courtyards, car park islands, screening and boundary planting. The upright habit gives height without spread, which is exactly what constrained urban sites need.
The evening scent carries well, making it particularly effective near terraces, entrances and walkways used after dark. Planted in a line it forms a tall evergreen screen quickly.
Site tolerance
| Drought | Moderate to high once established |
|---|---|
| Salinity | Low to moderate (indicative) |
| Wind | Moderate — soft wood, best given some shelter |
| Soil | Well-drained, wide range |
| Heat | High, with irrigation |
| USDA zone | 10–12 |
Export notes
Supplied root-balled and wrapped. The narrow crown loads efficiently, so container counts in this species are favourable. Phytosanitary certification accompanies every shipment. See export and compliance, and how the root ball is built, wrapped and loaded for the container on our nursery site.
For available sizes and current stock in this species, message us on WhatsApp at +66 93 425 9892 or email contact@thaibotanic.com — or browse the species catalogue. This is one of the species we grow and supply regularly. If you are working to a programme, send the planting schedule and we will plan lifting and shipping around it. Where a design calls for something outside our usual range, we source it through the nursery network we have worked with for years, given reasonable notice.
