Davidsonia jerseyana |
Davidsonia jerseyana, also known as Davidson's plum or Mullumbimby plum, is a small, slender subtropical rainforest tree up to 10 metres (33 ft) high.[1][3] The hairy leaves are compound and 35–60 cm (14–24 in) long, with 11–17 leaflets. It is endemic to a restricted area of northern New South Wales on the east coast of Australia.[3] The tree's fruit emerge from the trunk, and superficially resemble the European plum.
It is considered an endangered species. There are two other species of Davidson's plum.
