Curiosity about me
The important moments in your tree's life.
Let's start with introductions
This tree reaches and exceeds 30 meters in height. The diameter of the trunk can reach 140 cm. The young branches are pubescent (meaning that they are covered by a light fluff), while the older branches don't have leaves, but can reach up to 20 meters in length with a diameter of 20 cm. It is splendid when it blooms and its crown is filled with clusters of flowers.
Meaning
Longevity
This species of Rosewood is endemic in the eastern part of Madagascar, but is considered at risk due to excessive logging. It is the only variety, among all 64 Rosewoods, that lives over 200 years.
How much CO2 I’ll absorb
My estimated CO2 absorption capacity is based on the first 10 years of my life*
Current absorption
- 20 kg
2022
0 kg
2032
-200 kg
* The tree will continue to absorb CO2 even after the tenth year. Therefore this is a prudent estimate.
