Pisonia


This is a large, pale trunked tree which characteristically forms thick forests in the centre of most islands in the Capricornia and Bunker Groups on the Great Barrier Reef. They have soft ovate leaves and produce clusters of elongated sticky fruits in the summer.

Eight of Lady Elliots original Pisonia's can be found around the pool and bistro area.
