The Melastoma Malabathricum is known by many other names: Straits Rhododendron, Indian Rhododendron, Singapore Rhododendron, Malabar Gooseberry, Sendudok, and Senduduk Baldu are just a few.
This showy bush rapidly colonizes wastelands as the seeds are dispersed by birds. It helps to prevent soil erosion and to allow regeneration of vegetation in such places.
The beautiful mauve colored flowers are showy lasting only one day. They open after sunrise, close the same day, with the petals falling off a few days later.
The seeds are tasteless and can be eaten but stain the tongue black. In fact, the word melastoma is Greek for “black mouth”. The pulp around the seeds is eaten in Indonesia.
The seeds are used to produce a black dye, the roots, a pink dye. In some places, the leaves are fed to silkworms.
