The Digitata Baobab (Adansonia digitata) is native to sub-Saharan Africa and is the only baobab species endemic to this region. Known for its striking appearance and longevity, this tree can grow up to 80 feet tall and live for thousands of years. Its trunk is smooth and distinctive, often described as looking like an upside-down tree.

Size Guide:
**Seedling**: These are young baobab seedlings, less than a year old.
**Small**: Typically 1-2 year old, generally lacks branches, and will need more time to establish itself.
**Medium**: Generally 2-3 years old and may have a couple of branches, a bit taller or thicker than the small variation. 
**Large**: Still a small young tree relatively, but will be thicker, taller, and branchier. 

***Each seedling is unique, and while the pictures serve as a general guide, the actual seedling you receive will differ in appearance. If you have specific preferences, feel free to reach out for personalized selection options!

Care Instructions
- **Winter Care**: Baobabs should be brought indoors during winter months, as they cannot tolerate sustained frost. They enter a dormant phase during this time, shedding most of their leaves. Don't be alarmed if your seedling appears bare; it will flourish with new growth come spring!

Baobabs will adapt to life in containers, allowing you to create stunning bonsai specimens or if you live in the proper climate, put them in the ground and let them reach their full height over time. With proper care, they can grow to mighty heights over the decades.

Shipping Information
**Important Note**: Shipping during summer months can pose risks to these delicate seedlings. We prioritize their safety and will delay shipping until temperatures are more favorable if necessary.
