There is a body of anecdotal evidence that damsons were used in the British dye and cloth manufacturing industries in the 18th and 19th centuries, with examples occurring in every major damson-growing area (Buckinghamshire, Cheshire, Westmorland, Shropshire and Worcestershire). [15]
The satinleaf was one of the many species described by Linnaeus, appearing for the first time in the tenth edition of his Systema Naturae in 1759.. A combined DNA and morphological study of the subfamily Chrysophylloideae found the two main genera, Chrysophyllum and Pouteria, to be highly polyphyletic, and that C. oliviforme is in a clade with other members of the genus.
Terminalia arenicola is a small to medium-sized tree growing up to around 10 m (33 ft) high, the trunk is grey and tessellated, branches are often sympodial. [4] [5] [6] The leaves are obovate, discolorous, spirally arranged and clustered towards the ends of the branches. [4] [5] [6] They may be up to 22 cm (8.7 in) long and 14 cm (5.5 in) wide.
In addition to growth by cell division, a plant may grow through cell elongation. This occurs when individual cells or groups of cells grow longer. Not all plant cells grow to the same length. When cells on one side of a stem grow longer and faster than cells on the other side, the stem bends to the side of the slower growing cells as a result.

There is, however, a wide variation between trees in different districts due to hybridization and local selection.
