I dont know if I have a favourite tree, but I like so much Porlieria chilensis, that is a endemic tree of Chile, most commonly known like Guayacán. I like this tree because I think that is so especial and beautiful. Is a shrub or small tree whose branches has a witish color with small and composite leafs, and its flowers are simple, small, purple and cute.
Guayacán is distributed from Valparaiso region in the province of Limarí to Libertador general Bernardo O`higgins region in the province of Colchagua, I mean its distributed in the central zone of the country, in the mediterranean climate.
Porlieria chilensis is in vulnerable state of conservation according to the UICN that is the international union for conservation of nature and has a red list where they have the state of conservation of any plant.
The kind of forest where Guayacán grows is in sclerophyll forest, that is composed of plants from mediterranean climate with hard leaf.
