About Cassia cinnamon
Wikipedia Article About Cassia cinnamon on Wikipedia

Cassia (Cinnamomum aromaticum, synonym C. cassia) is an evergreen tree native to southern China and mainland southeast Asia west to Myanmar. Like its close relative, Cinnamon (Cinnamomum zeylanicum, also known as "true cinnamon" or "Ceylon cinnamon"), it is used primarily for its aromatic bark, which is used as a spice.

The Cassia tree grows to 10-15 m tall, with greyish bark, and hard elongated leaves 10-15 cm long, that have a decidedly reddish colour when young.
