É nativa das Ilhas Sociedade, no oceano Pacífico, Polinésia, de onde provavelmente foi introduzida na Jamaica e chegou ao Brasil pelas Guianas, tornando-se comum no Nordeste e outras regiões brasileiras. O fruto é uma drupa elipsoide, cilíndrica, com 6 a 10 cm de comprimento e 5 a 9 cm de diâmetro, com peso de até 380 g, mas usualmente menor, com cerca de 150 g, ou pouco menos, no tipo cajá-anão, introduzido pela Unesp/Jaboticabal na década de 1980. A cor externa da casca é amarela, mas no geral é manchada de pardo. A polpa é amarelada, ácida ou agridoce, aromática, com uma semente grande, fibrosa e espinhosa, o que dificulta seu consumo ao natural, também pela presença de fibras na polpa. Esta é cerca de 60 % do peso do fruto e a semente e casca 40 %.

The Common Screwpine (Pandanus utilis) is a tropical tree native to Madagascar. Contrary to its name, it is NOT a pine and doesn't even look like a pine. It is sometimes called a Madagascar Screw-Pine. Interestingly, like corn plants, it has prop roots to hold it up. They become woody and gnarly and strong enough to face up to tropical winds! Believe it or not, Albert is holding onto and standing among some very tall prop roots beside Pandanus Lake at Fairchild Garden!
Notice the long leaves with sharply serrated edges and the ridged, twisting trunks.

Git Git Waterfall, Bali, Indonesia.
Git Git Waterfall is a beautiful tourist destination in north part of Bali. Gitgit waterfall is located in the plateau area with the height about 35 meters and it is surrounded by tropical tree and emits the constantly natural water debit during the year. Waterfall voice around the charming nature was amazing and it was the separate attraction which can be enjoyed by each visitor who comes to visit. There are some plantations protecting the rain forest around the waterfall and in this place we often met the wild monkey to get the water from this waterfall.

It is a dioecious tropical tree that grows well in a diversity of soil, from the sea level to the 2,400 feet above sea level. Seed trees are normally planted 30 or 45 feet from each other; this one can be planted from 25 to 30 feet from each other. It needs a good distribution of rainfall through the year. Trees that were planted by seeds could take 6 or 7 years to give out fruit, but trees that were propagated by cuttings produce fruit in 3 or 4 years. It is a very productive tree. In Puerto Rico it produces through the months of August and October. In Cebu, Philippines there is a barangay named after the fruit itself. In Bangladesh it is known as 'bilati gab' (=foreign gab), to distinguish it from 'gab' (Diospyros peregrina).
The fact that fruits vary greatly - in shape, color, hairiness and taste - suggests that there is a great deal of genetic variation in the plant. Seedless cultivars exist, and are highly favored since in the normal varieties the large seeds occupy a considerable volume of the fruit
although the skin is similar to a peach, the flesh has its own unique taste and texture. i guess, similar to durian, eating mabolo can be an acquired taste because of its peculiar taste.

How to eat a Mangosteen
www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBZ9rviGTpg
The purple Mangosteen (Garcinia Mangostana), colloquially known simply as Mangosteen, is a tropical evergreen tree believed to have originated in the Sunda Islands and the Moluccas of Indonesia. Nevertheless, it also grows in tropical South American countries such as Colombia, where the tree has been introduced. The tree grows from 7 to 25 m (20–80 ft) tall. The fruit of the Mangosteen is sweet and tangy, juicy, and somewhat fibrous, with an inedible, deep reddish-purple colored rind (exocarp) when ripe.In each fruit, the fragrant edible flesh that surrounds each seed is botanically endocarp, i.e. the inner layer of the ovary.
The purple Mangosteen belongs to the same genus as the other, less widely known, Mangosteens, such as the button Mangosteen (G. prainiana) or the charichuelo (G. madruno).
A tropical tree, the Mangosteen must be grown in consistently warm conditions, as exposure to temperatures below 0°C (32°F) for prolonged periods will generally kill a mature plant. They are known to recover from brief cold spells rather well, often with damage only to young growth. Experienced horticulturists have grown this species outdoors, and brought them to fruit in extreme South Florida.

Ceiba pentandra is a tropical tree of the order Malvales and the family Malvaceae (previously separated in the family Bombacaceae), native to Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, northern South America, and (as the variety C. pentandra var. guineensis) to tropical west Africa. Kapok is the most used common name for the tree and may also refer to the cotton obtained from its seed pods. The tree is also known as the Java cotton, Java kapok, Silk cotton or ceiba. It is a sacred symbol in Maya mythology.

Dendrobates leucomelas is also known as the Yellow-Banded Dart Frog or Bumblebee Poison Dart Frog. This particular frog is poisonous, and is the largest species of its genus. They are recognized by their brightly saturated colors found on their tiny bodies. They are colored black with yellow stripes on their head, back and legs. Black spots are also found on and around their yellow stripes.
The Yellow-Banded Dart Frogs geographic distribution is in the evergreens and tropical rain forests of Venezuela, South America, and in Central America. They prefer humid rain forests, with temperatures often reaching 30 degrees Celsius or warmer, and about 50 to 800 meters above sea level. They are found on forest floors in leaf litter, and on fallen trees and stones. Some frogs also can be found living in tropical trees
Buzzing, humming, trilling or chirping sounds are used to describe the Yellow-Banded Dart frogs mating calls. The male will court the female using these mating calls, while displaying his bright body colors. The parental behavior of the Yellow-Banded Dart Frog is interesting because the female rarely participates in the care of her young. The female will lay 100-1000 eggs per year and will produce about 2-12 eggs in each clutch. Eggs are known to hatch within 10-14 days, and the tiny frogs have a growth period of about two to three months before reaching sexual maturity. The female leaves her eggs in the care of the male immediately after the eggs are laid. The male carefully transports the eggs in his mouth to little nearby water reservoirs where he guards, and keeps eggs moist and wet.
Die Echte Sumpfzypresse bevorzugt feuchte Böden, sie kann aber auch Trockenheit vertragen. Häufig wird sie an Gewässerufern gepflanzt und gedeiht oft auch in seichten Gewässern stehend, wo sie dann markante Atemknie (Pneumatophoren) ausbildet, die in der Funktion den Brettwurzeln tropischer Bäume vergleichbar sind. Die Atemknie erinnern im Aussehen an Termitenhügel und werden bis 40 cm hoch. Innen enthalten sie ein schwammiges Gewebe, das die Durchlüftung der im Wasser stehenden Wurzeln fördert. Diese Wurzeln sollen jedoch vor allem der Verankerung der Bäume im Boden dienen.[5] Es kommt auch zur Ausbildung von Adventivwurzeln. Als Parkbaum in Ufernähe wurde die Sumpfzypresse in Deutschland besonders von Lenné bevorzugt. Sehr schöne alte Exemplare gibt es am Schweriner See.

The bald cypress prefers moist soils, but it can also tolerate drought. It is often planted by waters banks and often thrives in shallow water standing where they then striking cypress knee (pneumatophores) forms that are comparable in function to the buttress roots of tropical trees. The cypress knee reminiscent in appearance to termite mounds and are up to 40 cm(16 inches) high. Inside they contain a spongy tissue that promotes aeration of standing water in the roots. However, these roots are mainly serve to anchor the trees in the ground. [5] It also comes in the formation of adventitious roots. As a park tree near the shore, the cypress in Germany was particularly preferred by Lenné. Very nice old specimens there on Lake Schwerin.

The frangipani is an iconic tropical tree bearing clusters of colourful and scented flowers during the warmer months of November through to April.
Flowers appear in clusters at the end of branches and have a very distinctive fragrance. The petals are waxy and the centre of the flower is a different colour - just like the most common variety which has white flowers with a yellow centre. Unlike some flowering trees which bloom for a few days or weeks, frangipani flower for months.
With flowers ranging from deep crimson to pale pink, white and yellow to orange and every shade in between there are plenty of varieties to choose from.
I had a hard time taking the picture of Cinderellas castle from the front with all the people walking in front of me. So I went to the side and took this clean shot. It pays to be patient and find a better angle to get a nice clean shot :-)
I guess Darwinism can explain creatures like the Owl Butterfly, but it just seems a bit odd. Darwinism teaches survival of the fittest through random genetic mutations. These mutations lead to animals with improved chances of survival.
I get it. The butterfly looks like one of the predators of the forest, an owl. In turn, it is left alone and flourishes compared to the non-owl looking butterflies. This completely makes sense. Still, it is amazing that this is to be explained via "random genetic mutations."
It just doesn't seem very random. However, to be fair it can be explained, since it is somewhat feasible over the course of thousands of years and perhaps millions of generations. ...and over the course of time, the mutations can become more significant over multiple generations.
Still with the butterfly, these are just patterns. To me, it gets even crazier when thinking about certain types of octopuses that can instantly change the color and texture of their skin to match surrounding conditions, such as local coral. With this example, there are several chemical/biological processes that all have to work together and happen at once for this process. ...hardly something that could happen via random mutation. ...especially if these mutations happened one at a time, in which perhaps hundreds or maybe thousands of "middle" generations with some of the traits would still have to remain "the fittest."
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying I don't believe in evolution. I definitely do. However, I do think it is possible that nature does so with some amount of innate intelligence. There have been some studies by major universities over the last several years that show chains of proteins can perhaps assist with evolution through, as one researcher states, "self-organization that can accelerate the generation of complex biological structures."
...but what is the intelligence behind the self-organization?
If you read this and it made you think a bit, please let me know. Note: You don't have to agree with me! : )
Thanks for reading. Have a great day!

SN/NC: SyzygiumCumini, Myrtaceae Family
Syzygium cumini, commonly known as Malabar plum, Javaplum, or black plum, is an evergreen tropical tree in the flowering plant family Myrtaceae. It is native to the IndianSubcontinent, adjoiningregions of Southeast Asia, China and Queensland. The name of the fruit is sometimes mistranslated as blackberry, which is a different fruit in an unrelated order. Syzygiumcumini has been spread overseas from India by Indian emigrants and at present is common in tropical former British colonies. The tree was introducedto Florida in 1911 by the USDA, and is also now commonly grown in Suriname, Guyana and Trinidadand Tobago. In Brazil, where it was introduced from India during Portuguese colonization, it hasdispersed spontaneously in the wild in some places, as its fruits are eagerly sought by various native birds such as thrushes, tanagers and the great kiskadee. This species is considered as invasive in Hawaii.

A espécie é nativa da Índia.
São árvores que podem chegar até dez metros de altura. Possuem frutos pequenos e arroxeados quando maduros. A coloração dos frutos provoca manchas nas mãos, tecidos, calçados e pinturas de veículos, tornando a planta pouco indicada parao preenchimento de espaços públicos.
O fruto possui uma semente única e grande, quando comparada com o tamanho do fruto, envolta por uma polpa carnosa. Apesar de sabor um pouco adstringente, é agradável ao paladar. Na Índia, além de ser consumido innatura, é usado na confecção de doces e tortas.
Na Região Nordeste do Brasil, é conhecida como "azeitona-preta"ou "azeitona-roxa", oliveira, e jamelão dependendo do estado. Nessa região, aplanta adaptou-se tão bem que se tornou espécie subespontânea, sendo chamada de "brinco-de-viúva". Também é comum no litoral paranaense, onde recebe o nome de "guapê".
Apesar de as árvores desta espécie serem abundantemente usadas em arborização urbana,os jamelões são pouco comercializados, em decorrência de sua alta perecibilidade. Os jamelões costumam deixar as calçadas manchadas de roxo devido à queda dos frutos maduros.
El jambul o jambolán, Syzygium cumini, es una especie de planta fanerógama perteneciente a la familiade las mirtáceas y es oriundade la región del Indostán. En Venezuela recibe el nombre de pésjua extranjera. Es nativa de la India, Sudeste de Asia y Australia, es comúncomo planta ornamental enjardines tropicales.
Esun árbol que alcanza los 10 m de altura, tronco con gruesa corteza. Las hojas son similares al melocotonero, tienen hasta 15 cm de longitud, son grandes, largas, estrechas y brillantes. Las flores son de color verde amarillento o blancas, agrupándose en racimos terminales. El fruto es una baya de color negro o rojizo con un sabor que se asemeja al albaricoque.
En los países de origen se hace una bebida alcohólica con su zumo. Las semillas son consideradas antidiabéticas. Los extractos de jambul tienen propiedades antibacterianas. Se usa en tratamiento del asma y bronquitis.
La pulpa tiene un sabor amargo a dulce y tiene una propiedad astringente. Variedades adecuadas se pueden comer crudas o procesados como frutas. Se producen zumos de frutas, vinos, licores y vinagre. La madera es un tanto difícil de secar, pero a continuación, se usa de forma permanente como madera de construcción.
De las hojas se obtiene un aceite esencial volátil para la producción de perfumes.
La corteza es utilizado debido a su tanino 8-19% para el bronceado. También proporciona un tinte de color marrón.
Syzygium cumini está en la región de Asia-Pacífico, y es una de las plantas más populares para la prevención y el tratamiento de la diabetes mellitus en la medicina tradicional. El uso médico se encuentra en las hojas y la corteza y principalmente frutos y semillas. En Europa, Syzygium formade la parte de los fármacos antidiabéticos de siglo XX más eficaces y se encontró ya en el cambio de siglo en los libros de referencia de médicos y farmacéuticos. En Alemania, la planta esusada principalmente bajo su nombre popular "Jambulbaum" en aplicación homeopática conocida.
In the Borneo rainforest, a leaf isn't always what it seems. Many tropical trees and shrubs have pale or reddish young leaves as part of a strategy to deter herbivory: the absence of green chlorophyll reduces their nutritive value. Here, an orange morph leaf-legged katydid (Eulophophyllum lobulatum) mimics this exact foliage type. This insect has been found to have a variety of colorations ranging from green to yellow and red, an adaptation that probably makes it more difficult for their predators to learn a fixed search image for any particular color.

SN/NC: Jacaranda mimosifolia, Bignoniaceae Family
Jacaranda is a sub-tropical tree native to south-central South America that has been widely planted elsewhere because of its attractive and long-lasting violet-colored flowers. It is also known as the jacaranda, blue jacaranda, black poui, Nupur or fern tree. Older sources call it J. acutifolia, but it is nowadays more usually classified as J. mimosifolia. In scientific usage, the name "jacaranda" refers to the genus Jacaranda, which has many other members, but in horticultural and everyday usage, it nearly always means the blue jacaranda. In its native range in the wild, J. mimosifolia is listed as Vulnerable by the IUCN.
Native of Brazil, it has its name inherited from the native tribe Tupi-Guarani and in Botanic is the only tree that keeps the same name in more than 200 countries across the world.
Pretoria, the administrative capital of South Africa, is popularly known as Jacaranda City because of the large number of trees, which turn the city blue and purple when they flower in spring. The jacaranda trees, far from their native Brazil, bloom every October.
The city of Grafton on the north coast of New South Wales, Australia, is famous for its jacarandas. Each year in late October and early November, the city has a jacaranda festival.[
In the United States, the jacaranda is grown extensively in California, the Southwest, southeast Texas and Florida and even in Hawaii. It is such a beautiful tree and used as ornamental tree in many cities across the universe. The color captivates and it has also a nice smell attracting bees and butterflies. The wood is noble and a reason for a tirelessly hunt of this precious tree.

Jacaranda is een subtropische boom afkomstig uit zuid-centraal Zuid-Amerika en die elders op grote schaal is aangeplant vanwege zijn aantrekkelijke en langdurige violetkleurige bloemen. Het is ook bekend als de jacaranda, blauwe jacaranda, zwarte poui, Nupur of varenboom. Oudere bronnen noemen het J. acutifolia, maar tegenwoordig wordt het vaker geclassificeerd als J. mimosifolia. In wetenschappelijk gebruik verwijst de naam "jacaranda" naar het geslacht Jacaranda, dat nog veel meer leden kent, maar in de tuinbouw en in het dagelijks gebruik betekent het bijna altijd de blauwe jacaranda. In zijn oorspronkelijke verspreidingsgebied in het wild wordt J. mimosifolia door de IUCN als kwetsbaar beschouwd.
De boom komt oorspronkelijk uit Brazilië en heeft zijn naam geërfd van de inheemse stam Tupi-Guarani. In Botanic is het de enige boom die dezelfde naam draagt in meer dan 200 landen over de hele wereld.
Pretoria, de administratieve hoofdstad van Zuid-Afrika, staat in de volksmond bekend als Jacaranda City vanwege het grote aantal bomen, die de stad blauw en paars kleuren als ze bloeien in de lente. De jacarandabomen, ver van hun geboorteland Brazilië, bloeien elk jaar in oktober.
De stad Grafton aan de noordkust van New South Wales, Australië, is beroemd om zijn jacaranda's. Elk jaar eind oktober en begin november heeft de stad een jacarandafestival.
In de Verenigde Staten wordt de jacaranda op grote schaal verbouwd in Californië, het zuidwesten, zuidoosten van Texas en Florida en zelfs op Hawaï. Het is zo’n prachtige boom en wordt in veel steden in het universum als sierboom gebruikt. De kleur fascineert en het heeft ook een aangename geur die bijen en vlinders aantrekt. Het hout is nobel en een reden voor een onvermoeibare jacht op deze kostbare boom.
Le jacaranda est un arbre subtropical originaire du centre-sud de l'Amérique du Sud qui a été largement planté ailleurs en raison de ses fleurs violettes attrayantes et durables. Il est également connu sous le nom de jacaranda, jacaranda bleu, poui noir, Nupur ou fougère. Des sources plus anciennes l'appellent J. acutifolia, mais elle est aujourd'hui plus généralement classée comme J. mimosifolia. Dans l'usage scientifique, le nom « jacaranda » fait référence au genre Jacaranda, qui compte de nombreux autres membres, mais dans l'usage horticole et quotidien, il signifie presque toujours le jacaranda bleu. Dans son aire de répartition naturelle à l'état sauvage, J. mimosifolia est classée vulnérable par l'UICN.
Originaire du Brésil, son nom est hérité de la tribu indigène Tupi-Guarani et, en botanique, c'est le seul arbre qui conserve le même nom dans plus de 200 pays à travers le monde.

C’est un très bel arbre et utilisé comme arbre ornemental dans de nombreuses villes à travers l’univers. La couleur captive et elle a aussi une odeur agréable qui attire les abeilles et les papillons. Le bois est noble et incite à chasser inlassablement cet arbre précieux.
Jacaranda ist ein subtropischer Baum aus Süd- und Zentralsüdamerika, der aufgrund seiner attraktiven und langlebigen violetten Blüten auch anderswo häufig gepflanzt wird. Er ist auch als Jacaranda, blauer Jacaranda, schwarzer Poui, Nupur oder Farnbaum bekannt. Ältere Quellen nennen es J. acutifolia, heutzutage wird es jedoch häufiger als J. mimosifolia klassifiziert. Im wissenschaftlichen Sprachgebrauch bezieht sich der Name „Jacaranda“ auf die Gattung Jacaranda, die viele weitere Mitglieder hat, im gärtnerischen und alltäglichen Gebrauch ist damit jedoch fast immer der blaue Jacaranda gemeint. In seinem natürlichen Verbreitungsgebiet wird J. mimosifolia von der IUCN als gefährdet eingestuft.
Der in Brasilien beheimatete Baum hat seinen Namen vom einheimischen Stamm Tupi-Guarani geerbt und ist botanisch gesehen der einzige Baum, der in mehr als 200 Ländern auf der ganzen Welt denselben Namen trägt.
Pretoria, die Verwaltungshauptstadt Südafrikas, ist im Volksmund als Jacaranda City bekannt, da es hier eine große Anzahl an Bäumen gibt, die die Stadt bei ihrer Blüte im Frühling blau und lila färben. Die Jacarandabäume, weit entfernt von ihrer Heimat Brasilien, blühen jedes Jahr im Oktober.
Die Stadt Grafton an der Nordküste von New South Wales, Australien, ist berühmt für ihre Jacarandas. Jedes Jahr Ende Oktober und Anfang November findet in der Stadt ein Jacaranda-Fest statt.[
In den Vereinigten Staaten wird Jacaranda in großem Umfang in Kalifornien, im Südwesten, im Südosten von Texas und Florida und sogar auf Hawaii angebaut. Es ist ein wunderschöner Baum und wird in vielen Städten im ganzen Universum als Zierbaum verwendet. Die Farbe ist faszinierend und der Duft lockt Bienen und Schmetterlinge an. Das Holz ist edel und ein Grund für eine unermüdliche Jagd nach diesem kostbaren Baum.
La Jacaranda è un albero subtropicale originario dell'America centro-meridionale che è stato ampiamente piantato altrove a causa dei suoi fiori viola attraenti e durevoli. È anche conosciuto come jacaranda, jacaranda blu, poui nero, Nupur o albero di felce. Fonti più antiche la chiamano J. acutifolia, ma oggigiorno è più comunemente classificata come J. mimosifolia. Nell'uso scientifico, il nome "jacaranda" si riferisce al genere Jacaranda, che comprende molti altri membri, ma nell'uso orticolo e quotidiano significa quasi sempre la jacaranda blu. Nel suo areale nativo in natura, J. mimosifolia è elencata come vulnerabile dalla IUCN.
Originario del Brasile, prende il nome ereditato dalla tribù nativa Tupi-Guarani e in botanica è l'unico albero che mantiene lo stesso nome in più di 200 paesi nel mondo.
Pretoria, la capitale amministrativa del Sud Africa, è popolarmente conosciuta come Jacaranda City per via del gran numero di alberi, che colorano la città di blu e viola quando fioriscono in primavera. Gli alberi di jacaranda, lontani dal loro nativo Brasile, fioriscono ogni ottobre.
La città di Grafton, sulla costa settentrionale del Nuovo Galles del Sud, in Australia, è famosa per le sue jacaranda. Ogni anno tra la fine di ottobre e l'inizio di novembre, la città organizza un festival della jacaranda.[
Negli Stati Uniti, la jacaranda è ampiamente coltivata in California, nel sud-ovest, nel sud-est del Texas, in Florida e persino alle Hawaii. È un albero così bello ed è usato come albero ornamentale in molte città dell'universo. Il colore affascina e ha anche un buon odore che attira api e farfalle. Il legno è nobile e motivo di una caccia instancabile a questo prezioso albero.
الجاكراندا هي شجرة شبه استوائية موطنها جنوب وسط أمريكا الجنوبية وقد تم زراعتها على نطاق واسع في أماكن أخرى بسبب أزهارها الجذابة ذات اللون البنفسجي التي تدوم طويلاً. تُعرف أيضًا باسم شجرة الجاكاراندا أو الجاكاراندا الزرقاء أو البوي الأسود أو النوبور أو شجرة السرخس. تسميها المصادر القديمة J. acutifolia، ولكن يتم تصنيفها في الوقت الحاضر على أنها J. mimosifolia. في الاستخدام العلمي، يشير اسم "الجاكراندا" إلى جنس الجاكاراندا، الذي يضم العديد من الأعضاء الآخرين، ولكن في الاستخدام البستاني واليومي، فهو يعني دائمًا الجاكراندا الزرقاء. في موطنها الأصلي في البرية، تم إدراج J. mimosifolia ضمن الأنواع المعرضة للخطر من قبل الاتحاد الدولي لحفظ الطبيعة.
موطنها الأصلي البرازيل، وقد ورثت اسمها من قبيلة توبي غواراني الأصلية، وهي الشجرة الوحيدة التي تحتفظ بنفس الاسم في أكثر من 200 دولة حول العالم.
بريتوريا هي العاصمة الإدارية لجنوب أفريقيا، وتعرف شعبياً باسم مدينة جاكاراندا بسبب كثرة الأشجار التي تحول المدينة إلى اللون الأزرق والبنفسجي عندما تزهر في فصل الربيع. تزهر أشجار الجاكراندا، بعيدًا عن موطنها الأصلي البرازيل، في شهر أكتوبر من كل عام.
تشتهر مدينة جرافتون الواقعة على الساحل الشمالي لولاية نيو ساوث ويلز بأستراليا بأشجار الجاكراندا. في أواخر أكتوبر وأوائل نوفمبر من كل عام، تقام في المدينة مهرجان الجاكراندا.[
في الولايات المتحدة، تتم زراعة الجاكراندا على نطاق واسع في كاليفورنيا والجنوب الغربي وجنوب شرق تكساس وفلوريدا وحتى في هاواي. إنها شجرة جميلة وتستخدم كشجرة زينة في العديد من المدن في جميع أنحاء الكون. لونه آسر وله أيضًا رائحة لطيفة تجذب النحل والفراشات. الخشب نبيل وسبب للبحث بلا كلل عن هذه الشجرة الثمينة.
ジャカランダは、南アメリカ中南部原産の亜熱帯の木で、その魅力的で長持ちする紫色の花のため、他の場所でも広く植栽されています。ジャカランダ、ブルー ジャカランダ、ブラック ポイ、ヌプール、またはシダの木としても知られています。古い情報源では J. acutifolia と呼ばれていますが、現在では一般的に J. mimosifolia として分類されています。科学的に使用される場合、「ジャカランダ」という名前は、他にも多くの仲間がいるジャカランダ属を指しますが、園芸や日常的に使用される場合は、ほぼ常に青いジャカランダを意味します。野生の自生範囲では、J. mimosifolia は IUCN によって絶滅危惧Ⅱ類に指定されています。
ブラジル原産のこの木は、原住民の部族トゥピ・グアラニ族からその名前を受け継いでおり、植物園では、世界 200 か国以上で同じ名前を保っている唯一の木です。
南アフリカの行政首都であるプレトリアは、春に花が咲くと街を青や紫に染める木々がたくさんあるため、ジャカランダ シティとして広く知られています。ジャカランダの木は原産地のブラジルから遠く離れており、毎年 10 月に開花します。
オーストラリア、ニューサウスウェールズ州の北海岸にあるグラフトン市は、ジャカランダで有名です。毎年 10 月下旬と 11 月上旬に、市ではジャカランダ フェスティバルが開催されます。[
米国では、ジャカランダはカリフォルニア、南西部、テキサス南東部、フロリダ、さらにはハワイでも広く栽培されています。それはとても美しい木であり、宇宙の多くの都市で装飾用の木として使用されています。色は魅惑的で、蜂や蝶を引き寄せる良い香りもします。この木材は高貴であり、この貴重な木を精力的に狩猟する理由があります。

ピンクのポイとも呼ばれるタベブイア ロゼア、およびバラ色のトランペットの木は、最大 30 m (98 フィート) まで成長し、胸の高さの直径が 100 cm (3 フィート) に達することもあります。 「サバンナの樫の木」を意味するスペイン語の名前「ロブレ・デ・サバナ」はコスタリカで広く使われているが、これはおそらく森林伐採が進んだ地域に多く残っていることと、その木材が樫の木に似ているためと考えられる。エルサルバドルの国木であり、そこでは「マキリシュアト」、学名はタベブイア・ヘプタフィラと呼ばれています。多くの都市で造園として非常に一般的に使用されており、特にブラジルでは非常に豊富です。この木は、マレーシアでは「テコマ」、スリランカでは「රොพูพันธุ์ทิพย์」として知られています。優れた重厚な木材を持ち、その丈夫さから床によく使われます。

Syzygium cumini, known as jamun, or jamblang, is an evergreen tropical tree in the flowering plant family Myrtaceae. Syzygium cumini is native to the Indian Subcontinent and adjoining regions of Southeast Asia. The species ranges across India, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Indonesia. The name of the fruit is sometimes mistranslated as blackberry, which is a different fruit in an unrelated family. Syzygium cumini has been spread overseas from India by Indian emigrants and at present is common in former tropical British colonies.

New Town Eco Park (officially Prakriti Tirtha) is an urban park in Rajarhat, Kolkata. The park is situated on a 480 acres (190 ha) plot and will surround a 104 acres (42 ha) waterbody with an island in the middle. The park was conceptualised by Chief Minister of West Bengal, Mamata Banerjee in July 2011. West Bengal Housing Infrastructure Development Corporation (HIDCO) is the overarching body coordinating the construction of the park, along with different other government bodies responsible for implementation of different works inside the park. The park has been divided into three broad parts; 1) ecological zones like wetlands, grasslands, and urban forest, 2)theme gardens and open spaces, 3)and urban recreational spaces. The Eco Park will be further divided into different sub-parts according to the different types of fauna planted. According to the plan, the park will have different areas like wild flower meadows, a bamboo garden, grasslands, tropical tree garden, bonsai garden, tea garden, Cactus Walk, a heliconia garden, a butterfly garden, a play area and an amphitheatre. Further, there is plan to develop an eco-resort in public-private partnership, and will also include an area where handicrafts from different part of the state will be exhibited. The park was inaugurated on 29 December 2012 by Mamata Banerjee.

Neolamarckia cadamba,
with English common names burflower-tree, laran, and Leichhardt pine,[2] and called kadam[2] locally, is an evergreen, tropical tree native to South and Southeast Asia. The genus name honours French naturalist Jean-Baptiste Lamarck. It has scented orange flowers in dense globe-shaped clusters. The flowers are used in perfumes. The tree is grown as an ornamental plant and for timber and paper-making. Kadam features in Indian religions and mythologies.
Beautiful flower in bloom from a tropical tree in the Botanic Gardens in Singapore.
Yeah, I went for the D850. Have such a collection of AF-D lenses(which I LOVE, like my 135mm f2 DC and 85mm f1.4) that I did not want to cripple with an adapter and don't want to be a beta tester for a Z body just yet. It was very tempting and very painful, I was so looking forward to a lighter body that would be easier to travel with. The D850 is great though, happy with it so far.
The only thing I'm not thrilled with is the file size... my D810 shots, when processed in Lightroom and Photoshop, would give me TIFF files around 135MB which I thought was pretty big. The D850 shots, when processed the same are around 250MB! My pile of HDDs keeps growing in number,... not sure how I will sustain this...
Neolamarckia cadamba, commonly called Kadam (Bengali: কদম/কদম্ব) is an evergreen, tropical tree native to South and Southeast Asia.
A fully mature Kadam tree can reach up to 45 m (148 ft) in height. It is a large tree with a broad crown and straight cylindrical bole. It is quick growing, with broad spreading branches and grows rapidly in the first 6-8 years. The trunk has a diameter of 100-160 cm, but typically less than that. Leaves are 13–32 cm (5.1–13 in) long. Flowering usually begins when the tree is 4–5 years old. Kadam flowers are sweetly fragrant, red to orange in colour, occurring in dense, globular heads of approximately 5.5 cm (2.2 in) diameter. The fruit of N. cadamba occur in small, fleshy capsules packed closely together to form a fleshy yellow-orange infructescence containing approximately 8000 seeds. On maturing, the fruit splits apart, releasing the seeds, which are then dispersed by wind or rain।

The title refers to the video game from the saga "Assassin's Creed" designed by Ubisoft, where precisely takes place a mission named "Abandoned..." of the sequence 8 of the game (right here Assassin's Creed IV : Black Flag). Abandoned in a hostile tropical jungle.

Some trees are always in leaf here in South Florida, but some are bare during the cool months. Royal Poinciana is one of these. It's tiny leaflets blow in all directions, turning the ground red and gold, piling up along walls and filling valleys between nearby plants.
Full grown Royal Poinciana are large spreading trees which produce 2 foot long brown seed pods that fall to the ground and release their seeds. I love these pods and their smooth grooved seed chambers and I attach them to wind chimes as sails to amplify their song.
Delonix regia is a species of flowering plant from the Fabaceae family, noted for its fern-like leaves and flamboyant display of flowers. Often grown as an ornamental tree and given the name Royal Poinciana or Flamboyant, it is also known as Gulmohar, Malinche, and Tabachine, and one of several named the Flame tree. The species was previously placed in a genus Poinciana, named for Phillippe de Longvilliers de Poincy who is credited with introducing the plant to the Americas.

Calliandra surinamensis is a low branching evergreen tropical shrub that is named after Suriname, a country in Northern South America. The plant usually has complexly branched multiple trunks and grows to a height of about 5 meters, although many sources suggest that it only attains a height of 3 meters. Left unpruned it grows long thin branches that eventually droop down onto the ground.

Nestled in a vibrant green rice paddy, a humble worker’s shack stands quietly. Behind it, a majestic Chocolate Hill from Bohol, Visayas, Philippines, rises, adorned with lush tropical coconut, palm, and other trees. A thin layer of sky crowns the hill, adding a touch of tranquility to this picturesque scene
