A handsome, semi-deciduous to evergreen tree, Ekebergia capensis is a great shade tree with a spreading canopy and attractive, dark green foliage.
It thrives in well-drained soil and does well in both warm and cooler climates, making it a good choice for various Western Cape gardens.
It is moderately wind-resistant and can be used for screening, though it prefers some shelter in very exposed locations.
It is frost-tolerant once established and can handle mild coastal conditions if provided some protection. Small, fragrant white flowers appear in summer, followed by red berries that attract birds.
A great all-rounder for gardens needing shade, greenery, and seasonal interest.
