Wild grape (Lannea edulis)

Wild grape

Wild grape is a deciduous shrub or small tree native to the savannahs and rocky landscapes of southern Africa. Its resilience is marked by tough, compounded leaves and small clusters of edible, red to purple fruits that are a staple for local wildlife. In the dry climate, its deep roots enable survival, and its smooth bark often peels in distinctive patterns, aiding in identification.
