African Red Peach is a small to medium sized, dry deciduous tree, rarely to 30 m tall with an open canopy, usually branching from low down the bole. It varies widely in height from around 10 metres up to 30 metres according to soil and moisture conditions. The edible fruit is gathered from the wild for local use. Much appreciated by the local populace, it is often sold in local markets. The globose fruit is about 8cm in diameter,The pulp is deep red, watery, sweet with a taste of ripe apple. The fruit is said to resemble a strawberry in taste and texture.
It adapts well to cultivation in tropical climates and starts producing fruits after only a few years. It is, however, essentially unknown in cultivation outside of Africa
