The soapberry tree, scientifically known as *Sapindus*, is a deciduous tree native to tropical and subtropical regions. It typically grows between 15 to 30 feet tall and produces clusters of small, white flowers. The tree is best known for its fruit, which contains saponins, natural compounds that create a soapy lather when mixed with water. The fruit of the soapberry tree is often used as a natural detergent and has been utilized in traditional practices for cleaning clothes and personal care. Additionally, the tree provides habitat for various wildlife and contributes to the ecosystem by improving soil quality.
