Sacky sac bean

Inga laurina (sacky sac bean) is a fast-growing tropical tree native to South America and Central America, valued for its fragrant pom-pom flowers and edible sweet pulp surrounding its seeds. It thrives in warm, humid climates in full sun to partial shade with regular moisture and rich, well-drained soil. An excellent shade tree for tropical gardens, it also fixes atmospheric nitrogen, naturally enriching the surrounding soil.
