The young plant:

A germinating seed:

In October 2014, I came across a newly cut tree stump. Except for the tree stump, all the other parts of the plant were gone. The bark appeared to release a lot of thick sticky latex when cut. The latex was probably white in colour when first release and gradually turned yellowish over time.

Read my encounter with this tree.
