'''''Sterculia quadrifida''''', also known as the '''Peanut Tree''', or '''Red-fruited kurrajong''' is a small tree that grows in the [[rainforest]]s, vine thickets and [[gallery forest]]s of coastal [[Queensland]] and north-eastern [[New South Wales]]. The tree grows to a height of 5 -10 metres and has a spreading deciduous canopy. The bark is a light grey and the leaves are dark green and broad egg-shaped or sometimes heart-shaped at the base. The flowers, which are greenish-yellow and are borne in small clusters in the upper axils, occur from November to January (summer in Australia). Seed pods are orange outside and orange or red inside when ripe. These pods contain up to 8 black seeds that are edible and taste like raw peanuts. Alternative common mames for this species include '''Kuman''', '''Orange-fruited Kurrajong''', '''Orange-fruited Sterculia''', '''Red-fruited Kurrajong''', '''Smooth-seeded Kurrajong''', '''White Crowsfoot''' and '''Small-flowered Kurrajong'''. ==Cultivation== ===Propagation=== ===Pests and diseases=== ==Varieties== ==Gallery== <gallery perrow=5> File:Sterculia quadrifida fruit and foliage II.jpg| photo 1 File:Sterculia quadrifida.jpg| photo 2 Image:Upload.png| photo 3 </gallery> ==References== <references/>    ==External links== *{{wplink}} {{stub}} __NOTOC__
