Found at a park in Brandon, Florida. This large tree was found growing in a shady region of the park. It has a trunk that was about 2 feet in diameter. It had bark that was easy to peel off and it had a red coloration to it. The leaves were sticky to the touch and had a nice aroma. Reminds me of a Christmas tree.
