Red Bauhinia (Bauhinia galpinii)
Packing for shipment of our bound to Cebu and Koronadal.
This is a drought-hardy species of shrub in the family Fabaceae. It is endemic to parts of eastern and southern #Africa. Its flowers are of value to #pollinators, including birds, and the sheltering shrubby habit renders it popular as a nesting site for small birds. Sheep and goats can safely browse the leaves and twigs. ππ±π±π³

Yacon
Looks like a sweet potato but actually these are Yacon/yakun (Smallanthus sonchifolius). It is a perennial herb in the sunflower family native to the Andes Mountains in South America. It produces large, edible underground tubers often called the "Peruvian ground apple".
Composed of about 75% water and rich in fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and inulin. FOS is a prebiotic fiber that the body does not fully digest, meaning it sweetens food without causing major blood sugar spikes.
