Sugar plum
Sugar plum is a fruit-bearing tree endemic to the miombo woodlands of southern Africa. It sports a dense, rounded canopy with leathery, green leaves. The tree's most characteristic feature is its wild plum-like fruits, which have a tart, sweet flavor, nourishing both wildlife and local communities. Sugar plum's resilience in dry, deciduous forests highlights its adaptation to variable climates, solidifying its role in the ecosystem and as a staple food source.
