The most well-known species among Asian camphor trees. Camphor is used as a spice, in incense, and as medicine. Also, as an insect repellent. This relative of the laurel stores its essential oil in its leaves. The plant thrives well as an indoor plant in our climate and has fairly large, ficus-like leaves. It's lovely to pick a leaf now and then and smell it....
