Description: Dioecious tree to 20 m. Leaves opposite, imparipinnate, leaflets lanceolate, assymetric at the base. Flowers in axillary cymose panicles, whitish. This was growing in the Ebb and Flow campsite at the start of the Giant Kingfisher Trail in Wilderness. I'd hardly call it urban, but it is parkland so......
