Description

Buddleja saligna has brown to grey bark in various shades on its erect main trunk that may reach 30 cm in diameter. The one in picture had an incident causing a peculiar split and angled away part of what is still basic structure.

Elaborate, irregular fluting of bigger stems is typical of this tree. The bark is fissured length-wise and flakes in thin pieces. On small branches that tend to be square in cross-section, winged and scaly, there is initially a velvety covering of whitish hairs. The crown of a big tree is dense and rounded from much branching in the somewhat drooping upper stems (Coates Palgrave, 2002; Pooley, 1993; Schmidt, et al, 2002).
