    (Asian Journal of African Studies, 2008-08-24) Washa, Bugalama Washa
    Dalbergia melanoxylon (leguminoceae, Papilionoidea) is a small tree that gives small, thin, flattened and indehiscent pods enclosing delicate seeds. It is valuable because it produce the most expensive timber and carvings in the world. This paper disclosed why seed germination and young seedling growth are vulnerable to available water. The in-sity survey indicated the dependence of the species to root suckers germination and that the adult mpingo are water demanding.
