Nauclea latifolia or African Peach
« on: December 11, 2019, 06:50:12 AM »
I had put this information on a post for The African Peach Gambeya lacourtiana.  That is not the African peach it is actually the African Apricot the African Peach is Nauclea Latifolia. I just got the African Peach to plant out. Just another tree to wait on forever on for fruit or maybe not.  What’s one more?.  The fruit sounds good like strawberry in nice deep red color I like.  Any tips on planting this, sun, does not like full shade, forest fringe?  Looks like it could be drought tolerant or wet conditions am I getting confused?  Sounds perfect for Florida, does good in sand, wet and dry, got that here in Florida.

This family of plants Rubiaceae is pretty amazing with wide ranging powerful herbal qualities.
