Cinnamomum burmanni (Nees & T. Nees) Nees ex Blume - syn.Cinnamomum mindanaense Elmer; Laurus burmanni Nees & T. Nees - Lauraceae
Indonesian cinnamon, (Batavia, Padang) cinnamon; Batavia cassia, (Java, Padang, Korintle) cassia; 阴香 yin xiang (chin.), Birmazimt (-Baum)
Tree, up to 14m high, native to Southeast Asia (China to Indonesia); bark brown outside, red inside, cassia-scented; leaves glaucous green and opaque abaxially, green and shiny adaxially, ovate or oblong to lanceolate, leathery, glabrous, triplinerved, midrib and basal lateral veins very elevated abaxially, conspicuous adaxially; flowers green-white, ca. 5mm; fruit ovoid, ca. 8×5mm.
„The dried bark is a source of an important spice, which is used as a substitute for cassia bark. The wood is heavy, soft, finely grained, and used for house construction. The leafy branchlets contain volatile oil. Three types of the oil are found in Yunnan: linalol type (linalol ca. 57%), citral type (citral ca. 77%), and cineole type (cineole ca. 47%).“
