    Mabuyu is what we call them in Zambia. The site of one these trees has actually been preserved a heritage site (Ing'ombe Ilede) because it served as a 16th century trading post in South Central Africa.
  • Baobabs are succulents!? This is the first time I have ever heard this. Thank you for increasing my knowledge.

    BAOBABS!!! FINALLY GETTING THE RECOGNITION THEY DESERVES
  • @theartofnina
    As a kid I was genuinely terrified of these trees cause of the passage in The Little Prince where it says they could cause a planet to split apart
  • I've first learned about Baobab through Little Prince. Decades later, I met my first Baobab. Believe me I hugged that tree.
  • @WyvernKing1998
    I know about these trees because in Madagascar, King Julien's throne room is in a plane crashed atop a massive one.
  • @sankimalu
    They sold these seeds outside my school for a couple of shillings when I was younger! Delicious! If I knew they would be marketed as a superfood 30 years later, I would have planted a few of them back then…
  • Baobab has become my favourite tree since I was 7 when I first read Le Petit Prince. Contrary to their representation on the novel, Baobabs are majestic trees that deserve the title “The Tree of Life.”
  • @yomeiko
    I remember first reading about these trees on The Little Prince by Antonie de Saint Exupéry, where the prince needs a goat to eat the baobab sprouts to keep them from completely covering his little planet.
  • @ProjectPhysX
    I didn't know these even existed. I'm only very familiar with the local plants in Europe. Thanks for educating me on flora on other continents!

    Doesn't it seem time for Tasha to get her own channel for plants. I'd watch both and we'd all get more of what we want.
  • @mersito3955
    The taste of the Baobab fruit really surprised me. It tasted like a citrus jogurt for me. It would definitvely become a popular ice cream or candy flavor if it was better kwown.
  • Human's likely transported Baobab seeds to Australia as a food source but some must have germinated. The indigenous story of how the baobab came to be is also the same in Australia as in Madagascar and Africa.
  • @kiri101
    Weird Explorer did a fantastic video where he travelled to the Avenue of the Baobob you showed here in a few stills, his channel revolves around exotic (to us) fruits. Great to hear from Tasha as always, long live Floralogic!
  • I first read about Baobab trees in the novel “The Little Prince”, but I don’t think I’ve seen any photos of them until this video.
  • The baobab is also featured in Disney's 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘒𝘪𝘯𝘨.
