Extended data:
The hometown of baobab is in arid Africa. In order to reduce the evaporation of water, its branches are often bare. Once the rainy season comes, it desperately stores water with its heavy body. It is said that a baobab tree can store thousands of kilograms or more of water, which is simply a water storage tower in the wilderness. When it is saturated with water, it will grow leaves and produce large white flowers.
Baobab trees are full of treasures. The bark is thick and the fiber is tough, which can be used to rub rope or weave cloth when peeled off. Leaves can be eaten as vegetables, and roots are tubers, which can be boiled after peeling.
The pulp can be eaten directly or made into jam. Seeds can be roasted and ground to make drinks like coffee. The shell can be made into a water ladle or a wine lamp. The trunk contains a lot of water, and the wood is soft, which is not suitable for building, but it is a good material for making pulp.
