Wikipedia Abstract

Dalbergia lanceolaria is a species of legume in the Fabaceae family native to India, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Burma. It is a medium-sized tree. The bark of the tree is traditionally used as an analgesic and anti-diarrhoeal. The apiose lanceolarin is found in its root bark. Because it produces new stems (ramets), it is recommended for reforestation projects on degraded land where seeds are unlikely to grow successfully.
