Dungon (Heritiera sylvatica)

Dropped my first Dungon (Heritiera sylvatica). This is a large tree reaching up to 45mtrs in height. It is recommended for steamed bentwork where strength and durability are required. Due to the toughness of the wood, it is favored for bulletproof shields. One of the prize-trees in the Philippines due to its toughness and durability.


Applied heavy mulching for the anticipation of the coming dry season. 



These are the germinants last December 2020. Finally I got to outplant one of them already after 13 months.
