Strychnos pungens is a tree which belongs to the Loganiaceae family. Usually it reaches about 5m in height and occurs in mixed woodland or in rocky places. The Spine-leaved Monkey-orange has branches that are short and rigid with leaves that are smooth, stiff, opposite, elliptic and with a sharp, spine-like tip. It is naturally found on the Witwatersrand, Magaliesberg and further north to northern Namibia, northern Botswana and Zimbabwe. The fruit is large (120mm diameter), round and with a smooth hard shell, bluish-green in colour and turning yellow when ripe. The pulp of ripe fruit is rich in citric acid and is edible, but the seeds are mildly poisonous. The tree is a close relative of Strychnos nux-vomica, the source of strychnine.
