Product information
Common Names: Wild peach, Wildeperske
This tree is said to attract lightning, but some people use it to protect their homes!
The hardish, pink-brown wood is a useful general purpose timber (beams, floorboards, furniture). It was once used for the spokes of wagon wheels. Some people believe that touching this tree will attract lightning. But, the South Sotho prepare a medicine from it to protect their kraals. Well-shaped and reasonably robust, the low-branching,
wild peach has smooth, pale grey bark that becomes rough with age. The variable leaves of this evergreen tree may resemble those of the peach. The tiny, bell-shaped flowers which bloom from August to January (spring to summer), are yellow-green, with male and female flowers on separate trees. The hard, round, knobbly, greenish yellow capsule which forms in February to July (late summer to mid-winter) splits to expose shiny black seeds, enclosed in an oily, sticky, bright orange-red coat.
