The Plant
In Madagascar, the names of plants have sometimes given rise to confusion between the local population and the botanist. Thus it is for two varieties of lauraceaes which produce different species of plant. Ravinsara aromatica is what interests us here, named and discovered by Sonnerat in 1782, a majestic tree of 20 to 30 metres in height which the Malgaches named ""hazomanitra"": the tree which smells good.
