White Seringa Tree Seeds

This is a straight-stemmed tree with a fine, round , leafy crown. It grows from 6 to 18 m high with a trunk diameter of 0.8 m. The leaves are sticky when young, colouring splendidly to gold and red in autumn.

Kirkia acuminata flowers from October to December with small greenish cream flowers. Kirkia acuminata extends from Gauteng, Botswana, Namibia, and to the north in Tanzania. It grows in the bushveld and lowveld of Gauteng in deep, sandy soil or on rocky hills.

The White Seringa is regarded as a sacred tree in some places in Zimbabwe.

The Zimbabwean women also use the bark of the tree for weaving.

In Gauteng, white seringa is planted around enclosures for livestock (kraals).

This splendid tree does not yet enjoy the fame it deserves, but it is a good choice for those gardeners who prefer something different. It was selected as one of the SA Trees of the Year for 2004. Other Kirkia Species available.
