Monkey Pod/Parota Live Edge

Monkey Pod / Parota Live Edge Slabs

Monkey Pod — also known as Parota or Rain Tree — is a hardwood celebrated for its extraordinary width, dramatic grain patterns, and warm golden-brown color. Here in Florida, Monkey Pod is an invasive species, so every slab we sell is locally sourced and milled by us — turning a problem tree into a stunning piece of furniture while keeping usable wood out of the landfill.

These slabs grow exceptionally wide, making them a top choice for large dining tables and statement countertops where a single slab can span the full width without a seam.
