KIGELIA PINNATA

₹65.00

Kigelia pinnata, commonly known as the Sausage Tree, is a striking ornamental and shade tree native to tropical Africa. It is well known for its unique sausage-shaped fruits and large, bell-shaped maroon flowers that hang on long stalks. Though the fruit is not edible raw, the tree is culturally and medicinally significant in many regions. With its broad canopy and unusual appearance, it is a popular choice for avenues, parks, and large gardens. Supplied in a 1-inch net pot — plant directly with the net pot into the ground or a spacious planter.
