Album Info:
(DSC08812) The Kalumpit Tree (Terminalia microcarpa) towers to about 25-30 meters in height and spreads out its canopy to about 15 meters in radius. Even up close and personal with this tree, the bole is about 1-2 meters in diameter and showing off its large and high buttress. It is also deciduous, meaning it sheds off its leaves during summer and grows it back come rainy season. Belonging to the family COMBRETACEAE, Terminalia means having leaves borne on its terminal brances, while Microcarpa means having a small fruit as supposed to other species from the same genus terminalia. If you are familiar with the tree Talisay, then they are cousins. Another note is that the Kalumpit tree belongs to the molave type of forest tree.
