Capparis lasiantha (Bush Caper)

This scrambling plant is a common shrub that produces large, delicate, white fragrant flowers. The pickelted flower buds of its European relative, known as capers , are regarded as a delicacy. The fruits are soft and pulpe and full of seeds. Birds such as the red-winged parrot eat the fruits and distribute the seeds widely.
