Khaya ivorensis, commonly known as African mahogany, is a large tree native to the tropical regions of West and Central Africa. It can grow up to 60 meters tall and is valued for its durable and attractive wood, which is often used in furniture, cabinetry, and flooring. The tree produces small, fragrant flowers that attract various pollinators. The wood of Khaya ivorensis is known for its reddish-brown color and resistance to decay, making it a popular choice in the timber industry. However, overharvesting has raised concerns about its sustainability, leading to conservation efforts to protect this important species in its natural habitat.
