The larger of the two trees I understand is male, producing a fine dusty flower loved by bees etc. The smaller tree I understand to be the female that produces the long pods.I have taken some of these seeds back to England and they have stated to grow on the kitchen shelf. I intend to plant out in the green house in the Spring.Can the Carob survive the south English climate??<br /><br />JOHNAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2787148012796625894.post-35521934740291205922011-12-04T10:48:02.494+01:002011-12-04T10:48:02.494+01:00When I was a child in southern Europa, we used to ...When I was a child in southern Europa, we used to grate the pods and use it on wide noodles with sugar on top, one of my favorite foods.Very healthy too.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2787148012796625894.post-25284758320650455512011-11-23T06:06:04.877+01:002011-11-23T06:06:04.877+01:00Carob is safe for dogs to eat, but I imagine in la...Carob is safe for dogs to eat, but I imagine in large quantities it could have a laxative effect due to the oil/fat content in the beans.
