Description:
Autumn is here again, in Israel the nice foliage comes only in late November and December, since it is rather hot before that. This tree is the Atlantic wild Pistachio, the nuts are edible, but tiny. It grwos from Morocco to central Asia, always in semi-arid places. Since it is a drought tolerant tree is it lately planted in forests in Israel.
