Important facts: The tree yields some ripe fruit year-round, but the main fruiting season is
March and April in the northern part of the plant's range. The fruit is a small
three-valved capsule encasing a single seed which is covered in a red fatty aril
(seedcoat) of 5–6 mm diameter. Both ripe and unripe fruits are borne quite
loosely on their stems and can spontaneously detach if the tree is shaken. Ripe
capsules dehisce or are cracked open by birds. Birds also seek out the fruit to
feed on the aril, which, though small, is rich in lipids (about half its
dryweight). Gumbo-limbo is a very useful plant economically and ecologically. It is well
adapted to several kinds of habitats, which include salty and calcareous soils
(however, it does not tolerate boggy soils). Due to this fact and its rapid
growth, B. simaruba is planted for various purposes, notably in coastal
areas. In addition, Gumbo-limbo is also considered one of the most wind-tolerant
trees, and it is recommended as a rugged, hurricane-resistant species in south
Florida. They may planted to serve as wind protection of crops and roads, or as
living fence posts, and if simply stuck into good soil, small branches will
readily root and grow into sizeable trees in a few years. In addition,
gumbo-limbo wood is suitable for light construction and as firewood,
and the tree's resin, called chibou, cachibou or gomartis,
is used as glue, varnish and incense Gumbo-limbo is the traditional wood used
for the manufacture of carousel horses in the United States
