  • The African Sausage Tree is an extremely variable, semi deciduous tree with a large, dense, spreading crown. It sometimes grows up to 23 m tall but is usually smaller. The bole is sometimes crooked, it usually branches from low-down and can be 80cm in diameter.


    An important medicinal plant in Africa, where it is commonly gathered from the wild for local use. The fruits are often sold in local markets and more recently the plant has become an ingredient in commercial applications to treat a range of skin complaints.

     

    The tree is often cultivated or protected in and around the villages of tropical Africa for medicinal purposes and to provide shade and a village meeting place.

     

    It is also widely grown as an ornamental in the tropics of all continents, producing long lax pendulous panicles of attractive, maroon-coloured, yellow-veined flowers that can be nearly 1m long. It is not advisable, however, to park a vehicle or to put up a tent underneath an African Sausage Tree during the fruiting period. The 'sausages' that drop every so often weigh up to 12kg and can cause considerable damage.
