Carob (Ceratonia Siliqua)

A nursery stock, repotted today.

In Israel there are vary old Carob trees, some of them over few hundreds years old few of them over thousand years old!

The Carob tree in Israel is the only tree that begins to shoot new shoots at September (all other trees at the end of February).
It is believed that the Carob tree was a present form Queen of Sheba (Yemen) to King Shlomo (Salomon).
