Sapindus saponaria, also known as western soapberry or wingleaf soapberry is native to the Americas, this small to medium-sized deciduous tree can reach up to 50 feet in height. Its golden-colored fruit, which can be stored for later use, contains a single black seed and can be used to make soap when rubbed in water. The tree's wood is heavy and strong, making it great for basket making. Its leaves are alternate, pinnately compound, thick and leathery, and up to 15 inches long. The soapberry can commonly be found growing at the head of prairie ravines, the margins of woodlands, the edges of fields, or on rocky hillsides. If you're looking for a unique and useful addition to your garden, consider the Sapindus saponaria.
