Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture

Barringtonia (Daines Barrington, English naturalist and antiquary, died 1800). Including Stravidium. Myrtaceae; placed in Lecythidaceae by those who keep this group as a distinct family. Evergreen broad-leaved trees, some of which are planted in the tropics for the striking foliage and flowers.

Leaves mostly large and crowded at the ends of the branches, entire or somewhat crenate: fls. large in the cult, species and striking because of the numerous long and protruding stamens which are united in a ring; calyx- tube ovoid or turbinate, lobed; petals 4 or 5; ovary inferior, 2-4-celled: fr. a fibrous berry-like or box-like structure, crowned by the calyx-limb, 1-seeded by abortion of other ovules.—About 30 species in tropical parts of Asia, Afr., and Polynesia, bearing the white or reddish fls. in spikes or racemes.
