Grewia flavescens, called rough-leaved raisin, sandpaper raisin, and donkey berry (a name it shares with Grewia bicolor), is a species of flowering plant in the family
Malvaceae, native to sub‑Saharan Africa, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, and India.[2] It is considered to be an
underutilized crop, both for its fruit and its use for livestock
forage.[3] Caterpillars of Anaphe reticulata have been found to feed on the foliage.[4]
