Polyalthia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Annonaceae. There are approximately 90 species distributed from Africa to Asia and the Pacific.[1]
These are trees and shrubs. The flower has six petals in two whorls, the inner petals curving inward over the centre.[1]
The name Polyalthia is derived from a combination of Greek words meaning 'many cures' with reference to the medicinal properties of certain species.[2]
