The genus name Tabeuia is a native Brazilian word meaning "ant wood," as ants live in the hollow dead twigs. The Guarani and Tupi tribes call this tree "tajy", meaning "to have strength and vigor."

Pau d'Arco is an evergreen (deciduous in colder climates) tree native to the mountainous regions of the Amazon and Andes but widely naturalized in the tropics. It can reach a height of 100 feet. The large, funnel-shaped flowers are purple, yellow, blue, magenta, or pink. The opposite leaves are ovate or lanceolate and are borne on yellow-green stems; they are usually gathered in groups of five of uneven sizes. Pau d'Arco wood is used in the construction of tools, boats, and houses.
