Product Description

Adansonia gregorii is a striking tree native to Australia, famous for its unique bottle-shaped trunk. People often call it the Gregory baobab or Australian baobab. This boab tree stands out in the landscape with its swollen trunk, which stores water to survive dry conditions. Its broad canopy provides shade and beauty to any environment.

The Adansonia gregorii blooms with large, white flowers that open at night. These flowers attract bats and other pollinators, playing a vital role in its reproduction. In addition, its thick, rough bark and twisted branches create a sculptural form that fascinates botanists and gardeners alike.

  • The trunk swells to store water during droughts.
  • Large white flowers bloom mainly at night.
  • Branches twist in unique, eye-catching shapes.
  • Leaves turn bright green in the growing season.
  • The tree provides shade with a broad canopy.

Known as the boab, this bottle tree holds cultural significance for Indigenous Australians. It also adapts well to arid climates. This resilience and its unusual form make Adansonia gregorii a fascinating addition to any garden or collection focused on native Australian flora.
