Compiled by Kalikasining, with the help of members from the Philippine Native Tree Enthusiasts, Co’s Digital Flora of the Philippines, the Hukbatala team, and other groups.
A comprehensive list and collection of posters that began in 2021 and have been continuously updated and expanded up to 2026.
This poster is made for educational purposes only. This poster is free for everyone to use as a guide for Philippine Native Flowering Trees.
Baka may magtanong po bakit walang Fire tree, Golden Shower, Akasya, Madre Cacao/Kakawate, Palosanto, Trumpet Tree/Tabebuia, African Tulip, etc? Hindi po kasi sila native sa Pilipinas, galing po sila sa ibang bansa, na introduce o dinala at pinakilala lang po sila sa Pilipinas noon at pinarami.
Karamihan sa mga puno sa posters ay hindi kilala, ang iba ay madalang na lang at hindi alam ng iba na meron palang ganito sa Pilipinas. Ang pag-alam sa mga punong ito ay magbibigay sa atin ng isang listahan at kaalaman tungkol sa mga katutubong punong may magagandang bulaklak sa Pilipinas, na maaari nating idagdag sa ating mga hardin, farm, parke, pampublikong lugar, o gamitin sa landscaping at maaaring magamit bilang gabay sa kung ano pa ang maaaring itanim para sa pagpapaganda ng ating kapaligiran.
Special thanks to Sir Jayson Mansibang for helping us with the names and other information about Philippine native flowering trees, to Sir Mark Anthony Carranza for the background photos, to the late botanist and plant taxonomist Leonardo L. Co for his invaluable contributions to the study of Philippine native plants, his passion, dedication, and extensive work continue to inspire us in educating others and promoting awareness of our country’s rich botanical heritage, to the members of Philippine Native Tree Enthusiasts, to Co’s Digital Flora of the Philippines, to the Hukbatala team, and to all other individuals and groups for their help, contributions, photos, and other information about Philippine native flowering trees, as well as for inspiring us to appreciate our native plants.
Imagine kung lahat ng ating mga katutubong puno na ito ay itatanim, pararamihin, at mas makikilala ng marami, siguradong mas gaganda, mas magiging makulay, at mas sisigla ang ating kapaligiran. Marami ring tao at iba’t ibang uri ng buhay-ilang ang makikinabang sa mga benepisyong mabibigay ng mga punong ito, at marahil ay hindi na kakailanganin pang magtanim ng mga imported na flowering trees dahil sa ganda ng sarili nating mga puno. Sa ganitong paraan, nabibigyan natin ng sariling pagkakakilanlan kung ano ang meron tayo, mapoprotektahan, at lalo pang makikilala ang ating mga katutubong puno na tunay nating maipagmamalaki!
Important Notes:
Not all the trees shown in the posters can be planted in one place or in every province, city, or town. Some trees can only grow in specific habitats. For example, mangrove species can only be planted in mangrove areas where they naturally grow. Others are highland species or beach forest species, while some can only thrive at certain altitudes and in particular environmental conditions. In addition, some trees have limited distribution and can only be found in a few places in the Philippines. Some have warnings because they can be dangerous if eaten or not handled properly. Some included species can grow as shrubs or lianas, but they can actually grow or be trained into small trees. These posters are not just a comprehensive guide to Philippine native flowering trees, but also a way to appreciate their beauty. That is why the collection includes not only lowland species, but also highland and mangrove species to showcase the diversity of beautiful flowering trees found across the country. It is important to consider where and what to plant, especially in tree planting or reforestation projects. That’s why some trees have notes indicating where they naturally grow, as these are the best places to plant them. Choosing native trees that naturally grow in your area helps conserve and protect them. These trees belong in their respective environments and are closely connected to the local ecosystem. They play important roles in maintaining ecological balance and are more likely to grow and thrive because they are well adapted to those conditions. It is also important to consider which trees are suitable for roadsides, cities or urban landscapes, parks, farms, and other similar areas.
If there are any species included in the posters that are not actually trees, cannot grow or be trained as trees or small trees, and are not native, please let us know. We are always open to learning and listening, and we will update the posters as soon as possible.
