"Wisdom is like a ___ tree; no one person can embrace it" (African proverb) (6)

I believe the answer is:

baobab

(Other definitions for baobab that I've seen before include "Monkey-bread tree" , "African fruit tree" , "Gigantic tropical tree with very thick trunk" , "Thick-trunked tree" , "Growth seen in Africa" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
