Hello there,

 

Every year, one of the park gardens that I visit showcases a few specimens that don't grow here and at the end of the season, these plants are overwintered in the park's greenhouse. Senna, formerly known as Cassia, grows in warm climates and in the wild, it can spread like wildfire. Senna, also called "Popcorn Senna," is loved by children because when the leaves are rubbed, they smell like popcorn!

 

Thanks a million for stopping by and for leaving a comment. I hope you have wonderful day and weekend!

I do favour summer over winter. As we've just passed the autumn equinox here in Australia, day and night are briefly equal. Now, the nights will gradually grow longer, and the air cooler, as we march inevitably toward winter—a reminder from nature that change is constant.

 

This aptly named bloom, the Winter Senna (*Senna pendula*), classified as an invasive weed here in Australia, serves as a signpost to the approaching cooler months.

 

On the bright side, spring is less than six months away now! So, here's to finding those bright spots during the colder days and remembering that warmth and growth are just around the corner. Enjoy your spring, you lucky Northlings!

Geflügelte Senna - Senna didymobotrya im Botanischen Garten Karlsruhe

Senna artemisioides. It produces an abundance of yellow “pea” flowers in winter and spring which are about 1/2 inch in diameter, followed by long flat green pods which age to dark brown.

 

It prefers dry, well-drained sites with full sun. It is propagated from seed, which should first be briefly immersed in boiling water.

Senna bicapsularis is a species of the legume genus Senna, native to northern South America, from Panama south to Venezuela and Colombia, and also the West Indies. Common names include rambling senna (formerly "cassia"), winter cassia, Christmas bush, money bush, and yellow candlewood. It is a semi-evergreen shrub growing to 3.5 m tall with a low spreading crown that reproduces by seed. It can grow from 2 - 12 metres tall and it branches from near the base. The leaves are 2.5–9 cm long, pinnate, with six to eight leaflets; the leaflets are 1.6–4.5 cm long and 1.1–2.3 cm broad. The yellow flowers are produced in masses with a few together on short racemes and 12–16 mm long. The plant flowers from mid autumn to winter, attracting bees and butterflies. The Nahuas of San Luis Potosi resort to this plant for the healing of the enchantment. For this reason, the patient is cleaned with seven leaves of its leaves, passing them throughout the body. Likewise, as part of this treatment, while the healer prays, he perfumes the patient's body with a charcoal, rosemary and copal incense and then cleanses it with an egg to remove the bad air that has taken possession of his body. The leaves are edible and are used to cure erysipelas in Morelos, and as an antiseptic in Oaxaca. The sap from emaciated leaves can be used externally, with salt, to heal rashes, sores, bites, stings, eczema, scabies, ringworm and thrush. In the 20th century, Maximino Martínez points out the following uses: cathartic and to counteract the effects of arthropod stings. The seedpod flavour resembles tamarind. The leaves can be cooked as a vegetable, which can be mixed with other leaves, beans or peas. It is naturalised and invasive in several coastal areas in the tropics, including Tanzania, Kenya, the Galápagos Islands and New Caledonia, where it is found in roadsides and disturbed areas, wooded grasslands, fallow land and riparian zones. 9654
