Flower Power















Please don't tie me up against this one...
Yes, it is the trunk of a very thorny palm tree.

Beautiful pictures! So this strange thorny palm tree, are they fungal type of symbiotic growths? Or the palm tree actually grows this way? Interesting species, I certainly haven't seen anything like it before.....learn something new every day! :)

Interesting questions, which I have no answers to at this moment. Next time I visit the Botanical Gardens I'll ask someone. And I'd love to go there soon again; the Dahlias are in bloom...
