Familiar names include Ceylon caper or Indian caper. It grows around forest borders, hedges, savannahs, and brushwood. It is sometimes used for food. It is pickled, or the pulp is cooked and eaten, but the flavor is poor. It can grow to around 10 to 15 feet tall. The stems have sprawling and drooping branches. The beautiful flowers look like they are spraying pink and white. When they get old, they turn dark pink. It prefers to grow in full sun to part shade with average water needs.
