Cannonball Tree, East Coast Beach, SingaporeThe very unusual Cannonball Tree Couroupita guianensis – a wonderfully unique flowering fruit tree growing on East Coast Beach, Singapore. The flowers are about 5″ wide and develop in massive 12 foot-long bunches. The fruit is about 8 – 10 inches across, and apparently has a very unpleasant odor. The tree has been regarded as sacred in India for thousands of years, and the bark, leaves and fruit have been used medicinally as a disinfectant; even believed to cure diseases like malaria.

Spurge, variety Blackbird

Spurge, variety Blackbird. With a name sounding more like an illness than a fun plant to have in the garden, the flowers keep producing two out of the one before it. Dr. Suess was surely inspired by plants like this.

Wasp nest, Lewisville, TX

i carry your heart with me
(i carry it in my heart)
i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is you doing, my darling
i fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it’s whatever you are a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you.

here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of a sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that’s keeping the stars apart.
i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
