Vernonia arborea is a species of mid-level rainforest tree in the Composite, or Daisy family Asteraceae that is found in Western Ghats of India and Sri Lanka[2] and is also widespread in the East Indies. This tree, and Brachylaena are contenders for the tallest of all composite trees ("daisy trees") with the variety V. a. pilifera (called Maremboeng) of Sumatra reaching a height of 117 feet (36 meters). Another variety, V. a. javanica of Java (called Semboeng Kebo) almost as tall (111 feet, or 34 meters) is up to 3 ft 5 in (104 centimeters) thick, the most massive of all composites.[3] Its leaves contain a useful fungicide.[4]
