A Chankiri Tree, otherwise known as Rain tree
Samanea saman is a species of flowering tree in the pea family, Fabaceae, now in the Mimosoid clade[5] and is native to Central and South America.[6] It is often placed in the genus Samanea,[7] which by yet other authors is subsumed in Albizia entirely.
Its range extends from Mexico south to Peru and Brazil, but it has been widely introduced to South[citation needed] and Southeast Asia, as well as the Pacific Islands, including Hawaii. It is a well-known tree, rivaled perhaps only by lebbeck and pink siris among its genus. It is well represented in many languages and has numerous local names in its native range;[8] common English names include saman, rain tree and monkeypod[6] (see also § Names below).
In Cambodia it is colloquially known as the Chankiri Tree (can be written ចន្ទគិរី or ចន្ទ៍គីរី).
