Product Description

THE CASTOR BEAN is a shrub-like plant with large, long-stemmed leaves that are lobed like fingers. Its spiny, clustered seed pods contain white, bean-like seeds (Botanically speaking, it isn't a true bean, but a Spurge), which typically bear attractive markings in various colours. The plant is native to tropical Africa, but it is grown commercially in California and has become naturalized throughout the southern United States. In northern areas, it is often cultivated, in the warmer months, as an ornamental annual in gardens, providing local gardeners with a castor of thousands.... The Zanzi Palm is a new and rather spectacular version of the Castor Oil Plant. A fast growing, palm tree-like plant, it sports large and architectural, green leaves and will be a splendid specimen for the back of the border. 12 ft. .
