Report an issue with this species

Tetradium daniellii is a deciduous shrub or tree planted for its modest size and shade-providing canopy. This plant bears showy, delicate blooms which vary in color from white, yellow, to pink and exude a strong, pleasant fragrance during summer. Additionally, autumn brings small but decorative red fruits to the canopy, attracting birds and bees.
