Chinaberry tree
(Melia azedarach)

Melia azedarach, the Chinaberry tree, is a hardy species growing originally in a wide range of conditions throughout Asia and Oceania, from Nepal to Salomon Island and to tropical Australia. Since its introduction as an ornamental tree, Melia azedarach has now widely spread worldwide and has been naturalized in Africa, Middle East and in the American sun belt. Its incredible adaptation to a wide range of climates and soils, its regular shape on a straight trunk, its elegant blue flowering and its golden foliage in fall make the Chinaberry tree a very popular tree for urban landscapes in tropical to warm temperate climates.
