There is a species of gaharu tree that have higher growing rates as compared to a local gaharu tree. This tree is scientifically known as Aquilaria
sinensis. And we, Hope Biotech Sdn Bhd also sell this species. A. sinensis also belongs in the same family and genus with A. malaccensis which is stated below:
Kingdom: Plantae
Phylum: Tracheophyta
Class: Magnoliopsida
Order: Myrtales
Family: Thymelaeaceae
Genus: Aquilaria
Species: Aquilaria sinensis
A. sinensis is native in China in the district of Guangdong, Guangxi, Hainan and Yunnan and it is being the main source species in gaharu plantation. Its characteristics are shown in the picture below:

Before this, A. sinensis is a valuable fragrant wood used for incense and medicine. And now it is used in producing various products such as cosmetics products, daily usage items and also accessories. Good quality gaharu is mostly derived from A. malaccensis. However, due to the depleting of such quality gaharu, resin produced by A. sinensis has been used as a substitute for the former gaharu and thus it is also under threats.
For us, Hope Biotech Sdn Bhd, we are selling A. sinensis in polybags with height below 2ft as you can see in the picture below.
