Latin name - Inga feuillei

Ice Cream Bean is a fun, fast-growing, and handsome tree which belongs in every backyard garden.  It grows wide with an umbrella shape and large, dark green pinnate leaves, casting shade down below.  We have one growing right over our kids’ play area and it’s the perfect tree.  The Ice Cream Bean fruit is a large bean-shaped pod with velvety bronze outer skin.  When ripe, split them open to reveal a fluffy white flesh which looks a bit like cotton candy!  It’s soft, sweet, and fun to eat, with a handful of seeds inside.  We love sharing Ice Cream Beans with visitors and friends when they’re in season (usually mid-summer) and sitting under the shade of our tree makes the yard more enjoyable.  The fruit simply falls off the tree when ripe, and a handful can be collected each morning (treasure hunt!)

Ice Cream Bean trees are very easy to grow, and can tolerate a lot of neglect.  Drought, heat, poor soil, and wind don’t seem to phase them, although they can break branches in tropical storm weather.  Not to worry, they can be pruned heavily and will grow back fast.  In spring, the tips of branches develop showy powderpuff flowers, which develop into fruit over a couple months.  Inga trees are also leguminous nitrogen-fixers, and when pruned, they’ll release plant-available nitrogen deposits into the soil, boosting the growth of nearby plants.  All these aspects mean they’re a great tool for building fertility – you can plant them alongside young fruit trees, and frequently “chop n’ drop” their fast-growing foliage to quickly improve soil conditions and boost growth.

Plant your Ice Cream Bean tree in full sun, in well draining soil, and it’ll do the rest!  If it gets top heavy, simply prune it – and don’t hold back, they can take a serious cut.  Expect at least a 20x20 canopy if you let it grow large.  There are hundreds of Inga species grown in Florida and throughout the world, we have found Inga feuillei to be the most well adapted and bulletproof, with the tastiest fruit!

Easy to install, very tough!
Color: White, Size: 16in, Color: White, Size: 16in
Seriously, scoring these shelf stands for $30 feels like an absolute steal! Four chunky wood boards with metal T-brackets that actually feel substantial - way sturdier than those flimsy IKEA ones I used to have. My old cheapo stands warped after half a year, but these hold up like a champ - I've got like 15 heavy textbooks stacked on them right now. Love the little details too: rounded edges so you won't scrape your hands, and rubber grip strips on the bottom. They look legit fancy in my living room as bookshelves and even class up my kitchen herb garden. My friend thought they were some high-end designer furniture! Honestly, the craftsmanship at this price puts my old $60 wooden shelves to shame. Already told my DIY group chat about these - trust me, you can't go wrong!

Worst item ever
Color: White, Size: 16in
Set up shelves and not sturdy at all. Followed the instructions perfectly. Very poorly made. I don’t have the box and now I’m stuck with the item. Garbage can here it comes.

There are better floating shelves
Color: Rustic Brwon, Size: 16in
Doesn’t feel very sturdy like other floating shelves I’ve bought, and they slant a little. The anchors and screws that it came with all broke so we had to get our own for it to feel more secure on the wall, but still feels wobbly. Overall, it looks good on the wall after the fact, but won’t be adding too much weight on it.
