Shorea guiso is a tree that can grow up to 30 m (98.43 ft) to 40 m (131.23 ft) and its diameter can measure up to 1.80 m (5.91 ft) or more. [7] [8] Guijo can be differentiated by the color of its branchlets, which are dark. [8] Primarily, its habitat can be found at low altitudes of the forest, normally inhabiting ridges. [8]
It is a small to medium-size tree (unlike most other Gnetum species, which are lianas), growing to 15–22 metres tall and with a trunk diameter of up to 40 cm (16 in). [5] In addition to the tree form, there are also varieties that includes shrub forms (brunonianum, griffithii, and tenerum). [ 4 ]

The tree's age was determined by carbon-14 dating of the root system, which found roots dating back to 375, 5,660, 9,000, and 9,550 years before 2008. [7] Carbon dating is not accurate enough to pin down the exact year the tree sprouted from seed; however, given the estimated age, the tree is supposed to have sprouted around 7550 B.C.
The park is dominated by apitong trees, as well as yakal, white lauan, bagtikan, guijo, dalingdingan, hagakhak, narig, and red lauan. It also supports palm tree species such as kaong, Albert palm, bamboo palm and anahaw.
