Baguilumbang (Reutealis trisperma)

New species added on my native tree collection is the Baguilumbang (Reutealis trisperma) aka Philippine Tung Tree. Commercially cultivated in India for its tung oil.
Conservation status : VULNERABLE. 



I have plenty of Lumbang/Candle Nut (Aleurites moluccana) growing wild here, it's a widespread species that's why its conservation status is LEAST CONCERN compared to Baguilumbang.
