A highly ornamental tree with huge bean pods up to 15 cm, containing candyfloss-like edible pulp. Leguminous tree. Ripens June-July. Will bear three years from seed. Beautiful white pohutukawa like flowers in January and February. The children will love the candyfloss!! - quite a novelty.
Highly reccomended as a pioneer tree in situations where the new garden is being established. Perhaps it is overgrown with weeds or the soil is poor, these trees will shade out the grass, fertilise the soil grow relatively relatively quickly.
