Grias Purpuripetala
''Grias'' is a genus of flowering plants in the family Lecythidaceae, described by Linnaeus in 1759. It is native to northwestern South America, Central America, and Jamaica. They are small to medium-sized trees, growing to 5–15 m tall. The leaves are evergreen, alternate, simple, broad lanceolate, very large, up to 1 m long, with an entire or waved margin. The flowers are creamy white to yellow, with four petals; they are cauliflorous, produced in clusters on the trunk and stouter branches. The fruit In botany, a fruit is the seed-bearing structure in flowering plants that is formed from the ovary after flowering.
