Quiver Tree (Aloidendron Dichotomum), Rostock Ritz, Namibia
Quiver Tree (Aloidendron dichotomum, formerly Aloe dichotoma) is a tall, branching species of succulent plant, indigenous to Southern Africa, specifically in the Northern Cape region of South Africa, and parts of Southern Namibia. The quiver tree gets its English common name from the San people practice of hollowing out the tubular branches of Aloidendron dichotomum to form quivers for their arrows.
