What kind of tree is it?
The scientific name of this tree is Terminalia Brownii. Terminalia is the genus it belongs to and this name derives from the Latin terminus, indicating that the leaves are found at the ends of the branches. The name we’ve chosen to present it is the one used by the Tharaka, who live in Kenya, since this tree is typical of central-eastern Africa. It can grow to over 20-25 metres and develop a large crown. It typically blooms from March to June and attracts a large number of bees during that time.
