Erythrina acanthocarpa * Tambookie Thorn

Erythrina acanthocarpa is a small tree or large shrub.   It will grow to 6 - 8' in time.  It is hardy to the upper 20's and may come back from the fleshy root.  The Tambookie Thorn is native to South Africa.  The trunk tends to get quite large compared to the rest of the plant.  This makes a great specimen tree where they can be grown.
