Mesquite (Prosopis juliflora) seed pods
Mesquite fruit grows as unusual, long seed pods containing bean-like seeds. When mature, the yellowish or reddish-brown pods grow between 10” and 12” (25 – 30 cm) long. The edible mesquite seeds ripen in July and August and have a sweet coating, making them popular with humans and wildlife. The most unusual mesquite seed pods grow on screwbean trees.
