How to identify Terminalia terminalia

1. Blades

The leaves of Terminalia tamarind are broadly elliptical, about 25 cm long, simple, leathery, and clustered at the ends of branches. There are two small glands on each side of the midrib at the base of the back of the leaf, which will turn purple-red before the leaves fall.

2. Flowers

Terminalia truncatula has spike-like inflorescences, clustered in leaf axils. The male flowers are at the top, and the female and bisexual flowers are at the bottom. They are white or yellow-green in color, small in size, and lack petals. The flowering period is from March to June.

3. Fruit

The Terminalia tamarindus drupe is oblong, yellowish-brown in color, about 5 cm long, and similar in appearance to an olive.

4. Appearance

The bark of the Terminalia tamarind is gray-brown and relatively smooth at first, but will gradually develop longitudinal cracks as the tree ages, at which time the bark can easily peel off in thin flakes. Its branches spread horizontally around the main trunk in whorls.
