Combretum kraussii, the forest bushwillow, is a medium-sized to large tree[1] of eastern South Africa, Eswatini and southern Mozambique, which is found within, or in the vicinity of forests.[2] The specific name commemorates Dr. F. Krauss who undertook a collecting trip to South Africa from 1838 to 1840.[1]
