Native to hammocks of Central to South Florida, a fabulous ornamental shrub or small tree that requires little care. Related to the edible caper plant.
Small but showy blooms that turn from white to pink the same day.
Blooms and seed pods attract butterflies and birds.
Use in a Florida wildlife garden with Coontie, Wild and Bahama Coffee, Simpson Stopper and Necklace Pod.
Very slow growing, give it space when first planting: patience will be rewarded.
Zero care needed once established. No pruning needed.
