"Cordia subcordata is a species of flowering tree in the borage family, Boraginaceae, that is native to eastern Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, northern Australia and the Pacific Islands."[1]

Gallagher noted that kanawa is "a beautifully marked wood which abounds on the island and is being cut to waste as planting proceeds."
