Ochrosia grandiflora is a species of plant in the family Apocynaceae. [1] It is endemic to northwest and central New Caledonia. [1] [2] It grows primarily in the wetland tropical biome, [2] and is found naturally as undergrowth [3] in lowland gallery forest [1] on schist or calcareous substrates. [1] It is relatively rare, and was first described by Pierre Boiteau in 1975. [3] According to Boiteau, it can reach the size of an 8- to 12-meter tree, but can be reduced to a 4-meter-tall (13 ft) shrub. [3]
