This dataset comes from Moringa oleifera and M. stenopetala seed pod collections harvested from known provenances in Kenya. The data includes both pod and seed traits as well as canopy and coppicing information for the mother trees. Pods were returned to Kenya Forestry Research Institute in Nairobi and Pods were air dried. The pods and seed were then measured and scored for traits in the laboratory. Provenance localities were measured using a hand held GPS.
