Croton gratissimus

''Croton gratissimus'', commonly known as Lavender croton, is a tropical African shrub or small tree with corky bark, growing to 8 m and belonging to the family of Euphorbiaceae or spurges. Young twigs are slender and angular and covered in silver and rust-coloured scales.
The species occurs in Ethiopia, South Sudan, Sudan, Kenya, Uganda, Ivory Coast, Burkina Faso, the Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Nigeria, Angola, Malawi, Mozambique, Zambia, Zimbabwe and the northern parts of South Africa.〔(Germplasm Resources Information Network )〕 It is often found in rocky terrain.
==Description==
The crushed, slender-petioled leaves are pleasingly and distinctively fragrant with an aromatic oil reminiscent of Sweet flag. The leaves are strikingly silver on the under surface and dotted with brown glands. The inflorescence is a yellow-flowered raceme up to 10 cm long and borne terminally. Rust-coloured flower buds, which are present throughout winter, open after the first rains.〔http://www.zimbabweflora.co.zw/speciesdata/species.php?species_id=134730〕 The fruit is a 3-lobed capsule, about 10 mm in diameter and densely scaly. The tree's bark yields the toxalbumin ''crotin'' and the diterpene ''crotonin''.
