Barbados cherry

Barbados cherry comprises a family of mostly tropical and subtropical plants, distinguished by their vine-like growth or shrubby form. Characteristically, they exhibit vibrant, often yellow flowers, and many species bear unique, winged fruits. Their thick, leathery leaves and resilient structures are evolved to thrive in harsh environments, effectively retaining moisture and withstanding variable climates.
