Carob Tree

Ceratonia siliqua

One of the world’s best natural sweeteners, the leathery pods are commonly ground as a substitute for cocoa and have been cultivated throughout the Mediterranean as a staple food source for thousands of years. A tough drought-tolerant shade tree that also makes an ideal windbreak in our dry climate. Needs male and female plants to produce the delectable pods so plant a few to ensure good pollination.
