Maclura pomifera, commonly known as the Osage orange, hedge, or hedge apple tree is a small deciduous tree or large shrub, typically growing to 8 to 15 metres (30–50 ft) tall. The distinctive fruit, from a multiple fruit family, is roughly spherical, bumpy, 8 to 15 centimetres (3–6 in) in diameter, and turns bright yellow-green in the fall. The fruits secrete a sticky white latex when cut or damaged. Despite the name "Osage orange",[3] it is only distantly related to the orange,[4] but rather is a member of the mulberry family, Moraceae.[5] Due to its latex secretions and woody pulp, the fruit is typically not eaten by humans and rarely by foraging animals, giving it distinction as an anachronistic "ghost of evolution"

The large fruit of the tree is not eaten by wild animals today so it is puzzling why the tree produced such fruit. It is suggested that it may have been a favorite of the giant ground sloth which existed in North America for a long time. After humans arrived it is likely that they were wiped out since they were large, not carnivorous and slow moving.
