YAW! 'Machete' or Coral? Tree
Oh, wow. The seed thief already has a sprout! Last week I stuck a few plant/tree seeds in the dirt and a brilliant orange seed from a Erythrina is already 8" high! I think this tree was a South American versian, seemingly vicious gnarbs on its trunk, if I recall. Emery helped break open some of the strange pods on the ground in McBryde Garden--we loved the intense orange color. Possibly in Florida, this tree is a little calmer or more domesticated as the 'Coral' tree? I think some are referred to as a 'Machete' tree outside of our country. And they look more dangerous too, in person!
