The Kusebeng tree, also known as Sterculia foetida, is a large deciduous tree that is native to Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands. In landscaping, the Kusebeng tree is prized for its attractive foliage, showy flowers, and unique seed pods.
 
The Kusebeng tree can grow up to 70 feet tall and has a broad, spreading canopy that can provide ample shade in a landscaped area. The tree's leaves are large and glossy, and its flowers are borne in clusters at the ends of its branches. The flowers are large and showy, with reddish-orange petals that form a funnel shape. The tree's seed pods are also noteworthy, as they are large and woody, and can grow up to 10 inches in length. The seed pods contain small, round seeds that are enclosed in a cotton-like substance.
 
In landscaping, the Kusebeng tree is often used as a shade tree or as a focal point in a garden or park. It prefers well-draining soil and full sun to partial shade. It is relatively low-maintenance, as it is drought-tolerant and resistant to most pests and diseases. However, the tree's seed pods can be messy and should be removed from the tree and surrounding area once they fall.
 
Overall, the Kusebeng tree is a beautiful and unique tree that can add interest and diversity to any landscaping project. Its attractive foliage, showy flowers, and interesting seed pods make it a popular choice among landscapers and gardeners.
