L.1753

Etymology: Regarding the white color of its flowers.
Place of Origin: Native to Jamaica.

It forms small trees or shrubs. The trunks are cylindrical and very thick, particularly noticeable from the base to the tips of the branches. The scars left by fallen leaves are clearly visible. It produces toxic white latex. The leaves are large, lance-shaped, with a well-defined petiole; they cluster at the ends of the branches and are deciduous. It produces large white flowers, arranged in terminal inflorescences. The seeds have membranous wings that aid in wind dispersal. It is highly valued in gardening for its ornamental appeal, hardiness, and fragrance, though it does not tolerate cold.
