Plant Description

Ziziphus jujuba, commonly known as jujube or Chinese date, is a deciduous tree reaching 80-120cm in height. It features glossy, oval leaves and produces small, yellowish-green flowers in the spring. The tree is well-known for its edible fruit, which resembles a date and turns from green to reddish-brown as it ripens. The fruit has a sweet-tart flavor and is often eaten fresh, dried, or used in traditional medicines. The bark of the tree is gray and cracked, adding to its ornamental appeal.
