Sterculia lanceolata is a tree species, belonging to the genus Sterculia and the family Malvaceae (previously the Sterculiaceae, now relegated to a subfamily). The species can be found in southern China (including Hainan island) and Vietnam (where it is variously known as: trôm mề gà, sang sé, sảng, trôm lá mác, trôm thon, che van, chóc móc or tròm thon)
The tree is harvested from the wild for local use as a medicine and source of fibre
The leaves and bark are crushed, then the paste is applied to the affected part as a treatment for snake bites
The boiled root is used (externally) as a treatment against body pain, joint pain, measles and chicken pox
The aril surrounding the seed should also be removed – this is easiest when it has been softened through soaking in water
The seeds germinate optimally at temperatures between 20 – 30°c. They can be sown in a nursery seedbed or in containers. A germination rate of about 98%, occurring within about 2 weeks can be expected if the seed has been properly treated
