Alloxylon wickhamii is a rainforest tree to 30 m (98 ft) tall in the Proteaceae family.[1] It has been found only (endemic) in the Wet Tropics of Queensland.[1][2]
In the wet tropics it is found growing in various well developed rain forests and apparently is "probably more abundant in upland and mountain rain forests".[2]
This substantial rain forest tree species has large leaves (adult: up to 17 cm (6.7 in), younger: up to 40 cm (16 in)) and bunches of attractive pink-red flowers in Oct–Nov.[1][2]
It is "not as well known as Alloxylon flammeum but deserves an equal place in horticulture …".[2]
