BIOLOGY
Trees shed leaves in the dry season. Saplings flower when only a few
years old but viable seed production begins at 15 years old. Flowering is
frequent, usually annually or even twice a year. Each flower lasts for only
2-3 days. In the Philippines, the tree flowers in April-June, in Java in July-
October, and in Papua New Guinea in May-July, although flowers and
fruits may be found throughout the year. Pollination is by large bees and
seeds are dispersed by wind.
