The [[baobab tree]] is the national tree of Madagascar. Due to its unusual shape, the baobab is sometimes said to be a tree with roots pointing to the sky. According to ancient Arabic mythology, it was the devil who pulled the tree out of the earth and re-planted it upside down.
The fruits of the baobab are highly nutritious, with more vitamin C than oranges. The fruit pulp is separated from the seeds and can be eaten directly or mixed with various meals and drinks.
