Ocotea bullata

Ocotea bullata, (stinkwood or black stinkwood, Afrikaans:Stinkhout, Xhosa:Umhlungulu, Zulu:Umnukane) is a species of flowering tree native to South Africa. It produces very fine and valuable timber which was formerly much sought after to make furniture. Due to over-exploitation it is now a protected species. Other names for it are Cape Walnut, Cape laurel, and laurel wood. The name "stinkwood" comes from a strong smell that is released when it is fresh felled.
