Gmelina arborea

Gmelina arborea is a fast-growing tropical hardwood tree valued for timber, agroforestry, and environmental benefits. It is widely grown in regions like Kenya due to its adaptability to warm climates and well-drained soils. The tree develops a straight trunk and broad canopy, making it ideal for furniture, plywood, and shade. In addition, its leaves can be used as livestock fodder, while its fast maturity allows farmers to generate income within a relatively short period.
