Description

The main stem of Podocarpus falcatus grows straight, erect and tall. Its bark is thin, smooth and ridged on younger stems and peeling in rectangular or round flakes from older trunks. Greyish to dark brown on older parts, the exposed patches of newer layers display various shades of red brown to pale buff.

Near the stem-tips the branchlets are thin, less than 1,5 mm in diameter, often square in diameter and ridged (Schmidt, et al, 2002; Pooley, 1993).
