Cola greenwayi is a species of flowering plant in the family Malvaceae native to southeastern Africa. It is a small to medium-sized evergreen tree growing to around 20 m (66 ft), either monoecious or dioecious. The leaves are alternate, purplish-brown when young and dark green and leathery when older, up to 15 by 5 cm (6 by 2 in). The flowers are in clusters growing in the axils of the leaves, with small, rusty-brown, hairy bracts. The fruit is a sub-globose, hairy at first, and later with a thin, brittle rind. It is found in dense forest, often on steep slopes, from sea level up to about 1,100 m (3,600 ft). It is also part of the typical flora of the Southern African Sand Forest.
