Gonzui

Gonzui (scientific name: Euscaphis japonica) is a deciduous broad-leaved small tree in the family Staphyleaceae, which is native to Japan, Korea, Taiwan and China. It grows wild in the thickets of Honshu, Shikoku and Kyushu in Japan. In early summer, the conical inflorescence extends from the tip of a branch and produces many small, light green flowers. The fall fruits are baggy flowers, green at first, but later red, with black seeds popping out from the inside. The fruit is similar to the fruit of the Mickey mouse plant (Mickymouse Tree, scientific name: Ochna serrulata).
