Quintinia is the genus of around 25 evergreen trees or shrubs native to the Philippines, New Guinea, New Zealand, New Caledonia, Vanuatu and Australia.[1] Plants have alternate leaves. White or lilac flowers form at the end of stalks or on leaf axils. The fruiting body is a capsule, usually containing a large number of tiny seeds. The genus is named after the botanist Jean-Baptiste de la Quintinie.
