Show Photo

Changi Pulai Tree is actually two trees, a Pulai and a fig, being blended together. The tall tree with the twin trunk (quite a huge, its width is close to 2 meters) is the Pulai tree or Alstonia angustiloba. A native of Peninsular Malaysia, the Pulai has a large pagoda-shaped crown with distinct tiered branching. The wood of the Pulai is sometimes used for making posts and boards. On the other hand, the green globe-shaped crown belongs to a ficus or fig tree (Ficus benjamina). According to National Parks, this tree has been nominated as a Heritage Tree and is the remnant of the old Somapah Village.
