Although aluminium (Al) is toxic for the vast majority of angiosperm plants, high concentrations of Al (i.e., < 1,000 mg·kg-1 dry mass) are found in some plants. Here, we investigate the Al accumulation behaviour in the temperate, deciduous species Symplocos paniculata, which belongs to a mainly tropical genus known to accumulate high levels of Al in its aboveground tissues. Based on a growing experiment in hydroponics with and without Al, we show that S. paniculata has the capacity to accumulate Al and that the absence of Al in the nutrient solution has a negative impact on the performance of saplings.
