Description

The bark of Peltophorum africanum is brown to dark grey, rough and longitudinally fissured. Younger stems have light coloured, smoother bark, patches of which can be seen persisting here among the new rough and dark form found on the older stems. The tree tends to branch close to the ground as well as higher up.

The young twigs are covered in rusty-brown hairs (Coates Palgrave, 2002; Schmidt, et al, 2002).
