Mexican olive (Cordia boissieri)

Mexican olive, also known as Anacahuita, White cordia

The Cordia boissieri, commonly known as a flowering shrub, can grow to a height of 5 to 7 meters. It features a symmetrical, rounded crown that spans 3 to 5 meters in diameter. The fruit of this plant is sweet but mildly toxic when fresh, potentially causing dizziness if consumed. However, once processed, it is safe to use in jellies and syrups, with the latter also employed in fabric dyeing.
