Andira inermis

Andira inermis is a nitrogen-fixing tree native to the area from southern Mexico through Central America to northern South America; it has been introduced to the Caribbean, the Antilles, Florida, and Africa. The tree has many names due to its wide distribution and multiple uses: it is also known as the cabbage bark, almendro macho, almendro de río or river almond, bastard cabbage tree, cabbage angelin, cabbage bark, cabbage tree, carne asada, guacamayo, Jamaica cabbage tree, moca, partridge wood, worm bark, or yellow cabbage tree. The tree grows to approximately 35m in height and 0.7m in diameter. It is evergreen and unbuttressed and has a dense crown and pink flowers. It grows primarily in riparian zones in forests along rivers. It can also be found in drier areas, including roadsides, pastures, and woodlands.
