Capparis Spinosa

Capparis Spinosa
L.
Caper (E); Alcaparras (S) . Pickled flower buds are the capers of commerce, much used in Colombia, but rare in Panama. In Colombia, buds of species of Cassia, pickled in sour vinegar with cloves, have been falsely sold as capers. Some Capparis spp. are reported to have poisonous fruits, but those of C. pittieri taste like Solanum quitensis (!).
