This is a tree with white wood, the ramose top of which attains a height
of from 20 to 28 feet. Leaves pennate, tri- or quadrijugate, composed
of from five to nine opposite, sessile, glabrous and oval folioles.
Flowers large, violet-colored, on pedicles that are expanded at their
extremities, and forming ramose terminal panicles. Calix tubulous,
with five teeth, corolla tubulous, slightly pubescent externally, and
expanding at its summit into a limb with five obtuse divisions. Stamens
five, one of which is rudimentary; ovary avoïd, surmounted by a simple
style terminating in a bilamellary stygma. The husks are linear and flat.
The caroba is very common in Brazil, in gardens and on plantations; it
blossoms in September. We employ the flower.
