Behind The Garden Gate
It was very nice to meet you too, here is the photo of the tree I talked to you about one of the nick names”silk floss”I am not sure what is the botanical name.In this photo you will notice that the tree has almost no leafs,no flowers,because I have taken this picture after summer,but you will notice the pod on the tree the shape of an egg plant,is big!Parrots love to eat the inside of it and it looks almost like cotton balls,if you know the name of this tree by a different name please let me know.Sincerely,FelixBehind the Garden Gate355 W. 19th,Houston, Texas 77008
Thank you Felix. The family name is Bombacaceae and its botanical name is Ceiba speciosa or Chorisia speciosa. It is a very unique tree species from the subtropical regions of South America. The orchid like flowers range in color from creamy white to dark pink and white.Thank you for your book suggestion. I look forward to visiting Behind the Garden Gate soon.Happy Holidays!
