Fern top is a medium-sized, deciduous tree known for its lustrous, pinnate leaves and small, creamy-white flowers. The leaflets’ pinkish flush when young turns green as they mature. Preferring subtropical climates, fern top thrives in well-drained soils and is often found in rainforest margins, where its foliage supports local wildlife. The tree's hardy nature allows it to adapt to various environments, yet it retains characteristic smooth, gray bark and a layered canopy structure.
