A small tree or shrub rarely over 6 m tall with rough leaves and masses of fairly big, white flowers with a yellow center in spring and summer, followed by olive-like fruits that are popular with birds and said to be edible after boiling into syrup, jelly or compote. Cordia boissieri originates from southern Texas south to Veracruz in Mexico but is rare in natural habitat. It is a popular ornamental in many warm temperate climates in USDA Zones 9 and above. Seeds need high daytime temperatures to germinate.
