Gopher Apple (​Geobalanus oblongifolius)

 I like the sun but will do okay in part shade.

I do not need extra water.

Size:    0.5-1 ft tall x 3 ft wide

Bloom Time: Summer                    

​

I am lovely ground cover for dry sunny areas. I get my name because I produce small apple-like fruits that gopher tortoises love! I have small white blooms, followed but the fruit. I am not only edible to animals, humans like my fruit too. I do well in sandy soils in full sun or part shade. But give me some room, because I am a ground cover and like to spread.
