WHAT DOES PALISANDER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Dalbergia retusa

Dalbergia retusa is a plant species in the genus Dalbergia. It is known to produce the wood called cocobolo. It is a fair-sized tree, reported to reach 20–25 m in height. This is probably the species contributing most of the wood in the trade. Because of the wood's great beauty and high value, the trees yielding this wood have been heavily exploited: they are rare outside of national parks, reserves, and plantations. Retusin, an O-methylated flavonoid, is produced by the tree.
