The park is notable for its {{wp|Shorea faguetiana|yellow meranti}} trees, the tallest tropical tree species on the planet. The tallest known tree, named Tavara, grows in the [[Lahera Forest]]'s Meranti Glade, which contains three of the ten largest trees in the world. The Lahera Forest is connected by [[Verona State Highway 301]] to Santiago Pantanal National Park's [[Elder Grove]], home to many other giant meranti trees. The parks preserve a landscape that still resembles the pantanal before [[Caphiria|Caphirian settlement.]] | The park is notable for its {{wp|Shorea faguetiana|yellow meranti}} trees, the tallest tropical tree species on the planet.
