Azanza garckeana Seed

Common Names: African Chewing Gum, Azanza, Quarters, Snot Apple, Tree Hibiscus, Wild Hibiscus

 

Azanza garckeana is a deciduous shrub or small, spreading tree, 3-13 m high, with a diameter at breast height of up to 25 cm; bark rough, greyish-black, fibrous, with longitudinal fissures and brown to yellow slash; young branchlets stellate-tomentose, becoming glabrescent when mature.

The source of the generic name is obscure. The strips of desert coast extending below the equator in Africa were once known as the ‘courses of Azania’, the name Azania being based on a word meaning ‘black and surviving in Zanzibar’, and it is possible that ‘azanza’ is derived from this. The specific name ‘garkeana’ was given after Professor August Garcke (1819-1904), a German botanist.

The adaptability of A. garckeana to various climatic conditions and soil types makes it suitable for planting as a shade tree in most areas.
