The fruit of Maerua angolensis subsp. angolensis is a long, slender pod dangling from a long stalk. The about cylindrical pod is often irregularly constricted between the seeds, the spaces caused by seeds that did not develop.

Starting off green, it pales before it ripens to brown. Pod dimensions are up to 16 cm long and 1 cm wide. They may be seen on the trees in spring and summer (Coates Palgrave, 2002; Schmidt, et al, 2002; Van Wyk and Van Wyk, 1997; Pooley, 1993; iNaturalist; www.zimbabweflora.co.zw).
