Kopsia arborea (蕊木)

The beautiful white flowers of Kopsia arborea be seen when you walk from block 56 towards the Food Club canteen. They are arranged in a corolla fashion forming almost a big ball of white flowers.  The tree has dark green leaves and grows to more than 10 feet tall.  The fruits resemble Asian Olives and turns black when ripe. Both dried leaves and fruits are used in TCM to treat sore throat and tonsillitis.
