Summary ²

Cunonia capensis (butterspoon tree, butterknife tree, African red alder, red alder or rooiels) is a small tree, found in the afromontane forests of Southern Africa, and along rivers. (It should not be confused with Alnus rubra, an unrelated North American tree that is also called red alder.) It is grown as an ornamental in gardens for its attractive glossy foliage and its clusters of tiny, scented, white flowers.
