Grewia bicolor: A drought-resistant tree that favors rocky slopes and depressions, the grewia bicolor's fruit is eaten fresh or sun-dried and is often turned into a juice or alcohol. Its hard, durable wood is suited for construction and for crafting spoons, clubs, and bows and arrows. Its bark is used as a diuretic and laxative and to treat diarrhea, gonorrhea, syphilis and inflamed instestines. Baobab (Adansonia digitata) : An African native, this drought-and fire-resistant tree is found throughout the Sahel. It is one of the largest trees on the planet, with trunks that are often 50 ft. wide, and heights of up to 85 feet. In the dry season, the baobab is completely without leaves. Some local legends say that spirits planted the baobab tree upside down, thus accounting for its scraggly appearance in the dry season.
