Bleeding heart
Homalanthus populifolius
''Homalanthus populifolius'', the bleeding heart, native poplar or Queensland poplar, is an Australian rainforest plant in the family Euphorbiaceae. It often appears in areas of rainforest disturbance. Bleeding heart is highly regarded by rainforest regenerators because of its fast growth and use as a pioneer species in rainforest regeneration.
Bleeding heart grows from the coastal border of New South Wales and Victoria , north to Coen, Queensland in the tropics. It is also native to Lord Howe Island, Norfolk Island, Papua New Guinea and Solomon Islands, and has been widely planted elsewhere.
It is the host plant for Australia's largest moth, the Hercules moth .
