Searsia glauca, also known as the blue kuni-rhus, is a small tree or bush commonly found along the southern coast of Africa. It can also be found inland among fynbos vegetation. The leaves are glossy and often have a blue-green color, with three leaflets. This species is dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate plants. Its fruits are distinguishable from other species by reaching a maximum diameter of 5mm. Searsia glauca is found along the coast of South Africa and in certain inland areas, including the Little Karoo, Worcester, and Zimbabwe.
