It ultimately attains a height of eighteen meters, at which point it bears a huge panicle of flowers five meters high and equally wide; the largest above ground inflorescence of any dicot plant[1] (although Caloncoba flagelliflora (Achariaceae; of West Africa)[2] and Ficus geocarpa (Moraceae; of the Malay Peninsula)[3] and Ficus unciata var. strigosa (also of Malaya)[4] have larger subsurface panicles, each about nine meters in length. Harmsiopanax ingens is monocarpic, and again the largest among dicots. Its native name is "makua".[1] References1. ^1 W.R.
