The Sausage Tree (Kigelia africana) showing off its bat-pollinated sausage looking woody berry. The fruit can be up to 3ft long and weigh over 20lbs! The fresh fruit is poisonous and will have a laxative effect on humans. The tree is often used for ornamental purposes but keep in mind location, location, location; falling fruit can cause serious injury to people, and damage vehicles parked under the trees.
