Euclea crispa ovata (Euclea crispa ovata)
Description
Euclea crispa,commonly known as the blue guarri,is an Afrotropical plant species of the family Ebenaceae.The hardy and evergreen plants may form a dense stand of shrubs,or grow to tree size.It is widespread and common in the interior regions of southern Africa,and occurs northward to the tropics.Though some are present near the South African south and east coasts,they generally occur at middle to high altitudes.It is readily recognizable from its much-branched structure and dull bluish foliage colour.Those bearing lanceolate leaves may however resemble the Wild olive,another common species of the interior plateaus.
