A tiny bit smaller than coconuts but waaay more plentiful, I was pretty nervous of standing anywhere near this tree!
See, not just one or two cannonballs but enough to scone you several times over!
And wicked thorns to boot (this is still the cannonball tree) but I did risk getting close because the flowers were so pretty... Ahh, tricksy!
See!! Look at that flower. It looks as thought it could just eat you up... wait... aaaghh!

Some kind of large, toothy palm

Still messing with the camera...
Nuts! Big as grapefruit!

Giant squid monster tree?
Looks like fireworks to me
We'll eat you up we love you so!

I love the photo of Jo and Roo! The flowers are so lovely too. I can see the Cylon ship as well... BSG rox. Maybe there's a Sharon (or 50) in there somewhere too!
Wow that coconut tree, and Dad, would have some fun together, I wish as my supply is dwindling.
I noticed the little Roo was dressed in green, for the Botanical Gardens. Guess he didn't want to look too obvious :o)
Josie looked wonderful, near her tree. Another photo to put in the collection and compare with past years.
Fantastic photo's of the flowers and also wildlife (the lizard), you have done an excellent job again.
Thanks for allowing us to visit with you all.
Gorgeous photos! They are warming me up on this cold Minnesota day.
The super talented Jac at it again. Your photography is wonderful, you're such a clever one.
Hmm looks like a lovely place for a holiday... might have to leave the brochures lying around to give a certain bloke a few hints!
