Golden Rain Tree
Aug 13, 2018 11:16:49 #
seed pods. I thought these were very interesting. They were growing on trees at the West Cancer Center where I visit on a regular basis. I missed the blooms but was able to reach some low growing branches that I trimmed and brought home. (got permission) They were hanging over cars and touching some. Inside the pods are several smaller than pea sized, black seeds. I have never tried to grow these as they can be quite messy but they have a pleasant shape and the beautiful golden flowers are a show stopper. Just sorry I wasn't scheduled to be at the Clinic while they were in bloom.

Beautiful shots of some very interesting seed pods, Corolyn! I used to collect these before our golden rain tree was destroyed in a hurricane. The seeds would plant themselves, and we had tiny golden rain trees growing under the main one...but no more.

So sorry you lost your tree, Donna. I still have the pods and they are changing color so I may do another photo shoot.

How unusual and beautifully photographed, Corolyn.... I think I would have snatched a branch as well!!
Are you going to plant the seeds in a pot to see what happens??

Well I actually contemplated whether to do that. But what is the point? They are very messy trees and I don't need another clean up job! Thanks for your sweet comment.
