About

Manihot aesculifolia, commonly known as buckeye-leafed cassava, is a tuberous shrub or tree native from Mexico south through Central America, in seasonal tropical forests. Its tubers are edible, but not as productive as the extensively cultivated cassava, or manioc. This is a "wild cassava."
