The bloodwood tree (Pterocarpus angolensis) is a deciduous tree with a high canopy, reaching about 15m in height and has dark bark. The red sap is used traditionally as a dye and in some areas mixed with animal fat to make a cosmetic for faces and bodies.

The name bloodwood for these trees stems from the dark red to brown sap that accumulates on wounds on the trunks.
