Symplocos
kuroki is a small evergreen tree with light brown bark
found in evergreen broadleaf forests. Leaves are of alternate
phyllotaxis; blades are 10- 20 cm long, 4- 8 cm wide, in the
shape of an oblong or long-oblong, with tips pointed, bases
broadly cuneate, and delicate, sharp serrations or shallow
serrations on margins. The leaves feel leathery, and the
surfaces are glossy. Veins are about ten pairs and significantly
uplift themselves on the backsides, as with midribs. The current
year's branch axils emerge as racemes and set many white
flowers. The inflorescences often branch at the bases, and the
branches bear dense dark brown hairs. Bloom time: March-April.
