Kigelia africana - Sausage Tree and Pods

Thanks, Delonix ... lovely photo ..
more pics for GoYpedia Sausage Trees :o)))

Thanks! :>)

This sausage tree produces lots of pods.

You'll be happy to know this tree is being offered a lot more in nurseries here now. It used to only be grown as an oddity. I should start seeing a whole lot more in the landscape.

That's good news :o)))

Yes, it is. People have to be very careful where they plant this tree, though. It can cause a lot of damage if it's planted around where cars are parked.

Do you mean damage to cars when the pods fall down ?

Oooh ,what a strange looking tree!

Terratoonie:

Yes, damage to cars when the pods fall on them. The pods can be quite heavy because they're so dense.

Paulthegardener:

Yes, it can appear strange to people who don't live in the tropics/subtropics where this tree grows. :>)
